Formula 1's drivers have now been issued with their permanent race numbers, after the FIA confirmed the entry list for the 2014 season on Friday.
As part of an effort to improve the marketing nature of the sport, the teams and the FIA agreed at the end of last year that drivers would now be assigned with numbers that they will carry throughout their entire careers.
Drivers had to lodge a request with the FIA for their preferred numbers - with any clashes going in favour of the driver that finished further ahead in the world championship.
Stats: F1's most successful numbers
With drivers having been informed of their numbers over the course of this week, the FIA issued the full entry list for the 2014 F1 championship.
World champion Sebastian Vettel will have #1 this season, but has chosen #5 as his race number and will switch to it when he is no longer champion.
Pastor Maldonado has elected to bring the #13 back to F1, even though it is traditionally viewed as unlucky, while Nico Hulkenberg will race with the #27 made famous by Gilles Villeneuve.
The FIA release also listed Max Chilton as the second driver at Marussia, albeit without a specified race number.
AUTOSPORT understands that a deal for Chilton to stay on alongside Jules Bianchi is done, but it has not yet been officially announced.
Both Lotus and Marussia's entries were marked as "subject to confirmation". AUTOSPORT understands the final paperwork relating to their entries has yet to be formally completed.
