F2 drivers Marcus Armstrong and Ollie Caldwell will get to test for Signatech-Alpine in the Bahrain rookie test on Sunday.
Both drivers will get a chance to sample an Oreca 07 for the first time a day after the final race of the WEC finale at the Bahrain International Circuit, where the Alpine A480-Gibson will make its final outing in the Hypercar class.
It comes ahead of Alpine’s expected single-year campaign in the LMP2 division of the WEC, where it could field as many as two examples of the Oreca 07 prototype that it previously ran in 2018 and 2018-19 seasons. Alpine WEC team boss Philippe Sinault made it clear that both drivers will be in consideration for its 2023 WEC programme depending upon how they perform in the one-day post-season test.“If they will drive the car on Sunday because they have potential for something for sure.”
