"The last Swedish F1 driver, Stefan Johansson, was my team-mate many years ago and I've always had links with Sweden, which is why I'm particularly pleased that we are able to work with Bj?rn at this event."
Wirdheim tested for Jordan Ford with Giancarlo Fisichella in Monza on 4 September.
Jordan is hoping to see Ralph Firman return to action after his Hungarian GP crash, and subsequently truncated Silverstone test outing.
