Stevens, from Surrey England was competing in the World Series by Renault in 2014 and speaking the announcement on his Twitter feed he commented:
'So happy to be making my F1 debut in Abu Dhabi this weekend with @CaterhamF1 many years hard work to get here so an amazing day for me!
He went on to say:
'Just want to say thanks to everyone who has helped me along the way I wouldn't be here with you! Especially my family:). #Goodtimes '
Stevens will get his first test of the Caterham F1 car in tomorrow morning free practice sessions.
