Caterham F1 Team has confirmed that its Will Stevens will drive the team's 2014 Renault-powered CT05 F1 car on July 8th at the Silverstone F1 test, taking place after the British Grand Prix.
Stevens is the team test driver and a member of the Caterham Racing Academy.
Stevens is currently fourth in the 2014 Formula Renault 3.5 Series with 68 points, having won the opening race of the season in Monza and with two further podium finishes to his name.
In addition to his commitments in that championship he has also been playing a central role in the development of Caterham F1 Team's driver-in-the-loop simulator at its Leafield Technical Centre headquarters in Great Britain.
The simulator is now an integral part of the team's engineering toolbox and as well as helping to develop and fine-tune its technical capabilities, Stevens has also been providing race weekend support in the cockpit in his role as the team's test driver.
This will be Stevens' second outing in an F1 car.
