After passing mandatory crash tests on Thursday, Manor Marussia have been cleared to compete at the opening race of the Formula One season, which takes place next weekend in Melbourne.

The team would travel to the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne next week with a modified version of their 2014 car.

Manor Marussia tweeted, 'Well done team! That's it - we're all set for Melbourne', the BBC reported.

Manor Marussia, who came out of administration last month after missing the final three races of the 2014 season, have named Englishman Will Stevens as one of their drivers for the forthcoming season and they would be racing with Ferrari engines this year.

 

Manor Marussia have been able to make a return to the grid after securing investment from Stephen Fitzpatrick, boss of energy firm Ovo, the report added.
