Fernando Alonso will continue to prepare for his Formula One return with Renault next year by driving this year's car at a post-season test in Abu Dhabi.
Alonso's participation in the test is controversial as the single day of running at the Yas Marina circuit was supposed to be reserved for young drivers with fewer than two F1 race appearances.
However, when Renault signed Alonso for 2021 it lobbied the sport's governing body, the FIA, to allow the veteran of 311 grands prix to take part in the test.
Alonso drove this year's Renault F1 car at a filming day in October, but the vast majority of his preparation has been in a 2018-spec car in order to abide to F1's strict in-season testing rules.
