11/3/11,

Lotus confirmed Luiz Razia and Davide Valsecchi as the team's test drivers in 2011. Razia will be the official appointed third driver and Valsecchi will be the team’s reserve driver. They both drove Lotus’s F1 car in the test at Barcelona on Tuesday and they will again drive the car during some Friday test sessions. Ricardo Teixeira has also joined the team as the second test driver.

Chief officer Riad Asmat said: “Luiz and Davide’s efforts have helped Team Air Asia to enjoy a very strong start to its debut season and their roles with Team Lotus will give them invaluable experience of the highest level of global motorsport which will help their natural talents develop in the right direction.

“Ricardo has already learnt a huge amount from his two runs in our car in the pre-season testing and we are very excited about seeing Luiz, Davide and Ricardo to continue growing with us throughout the season of 2011 and beyond and the whole team is looking forward on working with them.”
