Williams have confirmed that they will debut their 2014 car, the FW36, at the Jerez test next week, leaving just Force India to confirm its plans.
The Grove outfit will give Valtteri Bottas the honour of driving first, whilst new signing Felipe Massa will get behind the wheel on days three and four.
We can announce we will be on track in Jerez. @ValtteriBottas will do days 1 & 2 @Felipe1Massa days 3 & 4 running our heritage blue livery

The confirmation leaves just one team, Force India, to confirm its testing plans. If the Silverstone based outfit is ready for Jerez, only Lotus won’t be present, though McLaren must pass its final crash test this week if they’re to stick to their programme.
