Sauber has confirmed Felipe Nasr will kick off its schedule at the second pre-season test of 2015 in Barcelona on February 19.

Sauber had an encouraging start to testing in Jerez, where Nasr topped the session on day three and the team finished second on the other three days. After kicking off proceedings in Barcelona, Nasr will hand the reigns over to Marcus Ericsson for the middle two days before returning to the cockpit on the Sunday.

It means there is still no scheduled test appearance for new Sauber reserve driver Raffaele Marciello, a member of the Ferrari academy, who joined the team over the winter.
