Briton Mike Conway is to return to the Formula 1 cockpit early next month when he joins Mercedes Grand Prix for the young driver test days at Jerez, AUTOSPORT has learned.
The Indy Racing League racer was a test driver for the outfit when it was owned by Honda in 2007 in 2008, and is scheduled to run on all three days of the test that is restricted to drivers without vast race experience.
The test takes place at the Spanish track from 1-3 December.
Although the news has not been officially announced by Mercedes GP yet, Conway has been listed on the provisional entry list published by the Jerez circuit - and his management company has also confirmed he is travelling to the Spanish venue.
Japanese Formula 3 champion Marcus Ericsson has also been listed by Jerez as taking part in the test for Mercedes GP, although this has not been officially confirmed.
Ericsson impressed with his campaign in Japan this year, and his year ended strongly when he took pole position for the Macau GP qualification race last weekend
