Rio Haryanto will complete Caterham's driver line-up for the in-season test following the British Grand Prix, joining Will Stevens in the CT05 for the two-day test.

Haryanto drives for Caterham's GP2 team and is currently tenth in the standings. He has previously taken part in Young Driver Tests in Abu Dhabi in 2010 and Silvestone in 2012 and will be in the Caterham on Wednesday July 9 for his next F1 outing.

"I can't wait to be back in an F1 car and I'm delighted it's with Caterham F1 Team, the senior team to EQ8 Caterham Racing," he said. "The last time I drove an F1 car was at the young driver test at Silverstone in 2012 and with the new engine regulations this year I'm sure it'll be a very different experience.

"The goal for me is to use this day as another learning experience, another chance to build on the F1 laps I've already done, and while my focus before the test is obviously to do the best job I can in GP2, I will be 100% ready to work to the plan the team set and help them develop as best I can."
