Oliver Bearman's 15-year-old brother will make his single-seater debut this weekend, in the Euro 4 championship.
Thomas Bearman has been progressing through the karting ranks and will race for Hitech Grand Prix in Austria.
The Red Bull Ring hosts the second round of the Euro 4 series on Saturday, where Hitech GP is fielding three cars.
It is the third car which will be driven by Thomas, whose brother is a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy and has been signed by Haas to be a full-time F1 driver next season.
Oliver entered his first F1 race earlier this year for Ferrari after Carlos Sainz was ruled out due to the Spanish driver requiring an immediate appendectomy.
The 19-year-old will race for Haas this weekend in Azerbaijan, with the Briton the preferred driver to replace Kevin Magnussen who is serving a one-race ban.
As for Thomas, although he has some way to go to emulate his older brother, his single-seater debut this weekend is in preparation for a British F4 campaign next year with Hitech GP.
