Notes:
PST is the Post Season Test that took place in Abu Dhabi, on the Tuesday after the Grand Prix. One car had to be driven by a young driver with no more than two grand prix starts. The other car had to have a current driver and was designated for Pirelli tyre testing.

JSF is the Japanese Super Formula. It's used by Europeans looking for somewhere to keep sharp while waiting for an F1 chance. The cars are comparable to F1 in speed terms.

Williams, Racing Bulls, Sauber and Haas do not have nominated reserve drivers. Haas would probably call on Ferrari, Racing Bulls on Red Bull, Williams might well call on Mercedes. Sauber – not a scooby.
