Formula 2 front-runner Robert Shwartzman will take part in Formula 1’s young driver test for Haas.
The young driver test will take place on Tuesday after the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix at the Yas Marina Circuit, in parallel to the two-day post-season tyre test.
Shwartzman, who is part of the Ferrari Driver Academy, took part in the test last year, driving Ferrari’s SF1000 from the 2020 campaign.
This year, he’ll get behind the wheel of the Haas VF-21, as he gathers further F1 experience.
“First of all I would like to thank Haas F1 Team, Scuderia Ferrari and the Ferrari Driver Academy for this great opportunity,” said Shwartzman.
“This will be my first test with Haas F1 Team and I’m really looking forward to getting to know a new team, environment and also to learn as much as possible from them.
“Having the chance to drive for another F1 team is just incredible and I can’t wait to work with everyone.”
Shwartzman is currently in his second season in the F2 championship, having graduated to the series last year as the 2019 Formula 3 champion.
The Russian has taken two race wins so far this campaign, and currently sits third in the standings with two rounds remaining.
“We’re looking forward to testing with Robert at Yas Marina in December,” added Haas team principal Guenther Steiner.
“He’s obviously highly rated by Ferrari – having been part of their driver program since the end of 2017.
“His ability is clearly in evidence when you look at his performances over the last few seasons – most notably his rookie campaign in Formula 2 last year – competing against the likes of our own two drivers Mick Schumacher and Nikita Mazepin.
“We are pleased to be able to give Robert an outing in a Formula 1 car and we look forward to working with him in Abu Dhabi.”
