Team Lotus will test Portugese driver Ricardo Teixeira during Saturday’s test in Barcelona.
He’ll get the opportunity to complete a couple of laps in the T128, taking over from Heikki Kovalainen.
The Angolan-Portugese has already driven the T128 during a promotional film day in Valencia. This further test has prompted suggestions he’ll secure the third seat with the team, rather than Karun Chandhok.
