New Formula One team Hispania Racing says Karun Chandhok will drive alongside Bruno Senna this season.
The 26-year-old Indian driver raced in F1 feeder series GP2 and has been linked previously with a Force India seat.
The announcement on Thursday came as owner Jose Ramon Carabante and team principal Colin Kolles unveiled the team's car livery.
Kolles says Chandhok's arrival "will be great for the sport to have an Indian driver on the grid."
The Spanish team, which was called Campos Meta until Wednesday, missed all of February's preseason testing but says it will be at the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix on March 14.
