Jean-Eric Vergne joins Ferrari as test driver
Scuderia Ferrari has confirmed that French racer Jean-Eric Vergne has joined the team in the role of test driver ahead of the 2015 season.
Vergne made his F1 debut in 2012, spending three seasons with Toro Rosso before being dropped at the end of 2014 to allow Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz Jr. to step up to a full-time seat next year.
