Pincher Nosed Lotus E22 will be tested on Friday
Lotus will not wait until the next official test in Bahrain to get its delayed 2014 car on track.

Officially, the Lotus outing at Jerez will be for promotional 'filming days' on demonstration Pirelli tyres, allowed under the rules regulating the sport's strict limits on track testing.
