Heuzenroeder will replace Ernesto Rivera, who suffered a back injury in the Formula Regional Oceania Trophy finale at Highlands Motorsport Park.<\/p>\n

The test, at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in Spain, will see Heuzenroeder join American Ugo Ugochukwu and Frenchman Theophile Nael.<\/p>\n

Testing will take place across three days, beginning on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Heuzenroeder will be one of two Australians in the test, joining compatriot James Wharton out of Prema Racing.<\/p>\n

Heuzenroeder\u2019s inclusion is only temporary, as Rivera is already confirmed to compete for Campos Racing in this year\u2019s championship.<\/p>\n

The Australian will feature for Campos Racing in Eurocup-3 driving the new Toyota-powered Dallara 326.<\/p>\n

Campos Racing said the Formula 3 test would be an \u201copportunity to gain valuable experience at the wheel of the Formula 3 car and contribute to fine-tuning the car set-up alongside his team-mates and engineers.\u201d<\/p>\n

The eight-round Eurocup-3 season begins on May 1-3 at Circuit Paul Ricard as part of the European Le Mans Series support card.<\/p>\n
