Preining and Hauger to test in Berlin
Thomas Preining - a current DTM racer - will joing Dennis Hauger at Porsche for the Rookie Test after May's Berlin double-header, at the all-day session on Monday 13 May.
CATCH UP: Watch the best of the action from the first Tokyo E-Prix
Hauger's currently competing his third FIA Formula 2 season with MP Motorsport.
Fresh faces, golden opportunity
Teams can field someone who's sampled Formula E machinery before but they must not be drivers included on the Season 10 Entry List and they must not have competed in a Formula E race in their career before. The idea is to give the best young talent a pathway to race at the very top of the motorsport ladder with a taste of Formula E and the opportunity to impress prospective teams in the world's leading electric race series.
The choices the teams have put forward to Formula E and the FIA will be revealed in the lead up to Rome, with ABT CUPRA already signalling that Tim Tramnitz will once again be in the car after his outing last season and Envision Racing welcoming Jack Aitken back.
