Newly crowned European Formula 3 champion, Frenchman Esteban Ocon looks set to make his Formula 1 official debut in Abu Dhabi with Lotus F1 Team.
Speed Week and Autosprint report Tuesday that the 18-year-old member of Gravity Management and Lotus Junior Team will drive a Renault-powered E22 in the Friday's first practice session.
Ocon tested a Lotus F1 car earlier this year, as well as a Ferrari F10.
Italian magazine Autosprint also reports that Ocon may not come head-to-head with his Formula 3 rival and new Toro Rosso driver, Max Verstappen Friday.
It appears that Scuderia Toro Rosso looks to maximise the double points race weekend by not sidelining race driver Jean-Eric Vergne Friday morning as originally planned.
