German Geipel, 22, will join regular drivers Franz Engstler and Kristian Poulsen at Brands Hatch and Oschersleben.

"He is the first young driver whom we will give a chance to learn and grow in the WTCC as part of our Liqui Moly Junior Team project," explained team manger Kurt Treml.

Reigning champion of the German ADAC Procar series, Geipel has appeared in the WTCC twice before.

He raced at Brno in 2006 and 2007 at the wheel of a Toyota Corolla T-sport.
