The Princess of Wales announced in March she was having treatment after cancer was found following an abdominal surgery
D’Ambrosio, who has been competing in the GP2 support series for the past four seasons, will drive on Fridays at Singapore this week, Japan, South Korea and Brazil.
The 25-year-old, a Renault reserve and test driver, will also take part in a young driver test in Abu Dhabi after the season ends.
“The team will be using this opportunity to evaluate Jerome’s potential,” Virgin said in a statement.
“Jerome will join existing long-term reserve driver Luis Razia who continues in the role,” it added.
D’Ambrosio will replace Brazilian race driver Lucas di Grassi in the first Friday session in Singapore alongside Germany’s Timo Glock.
“My ultimate goal has always been to race in Formula One and I am delighted to get a step closer,” said the Belgian.
Virgin, one of three all-new F1 teams fighting at the back of the grid this season, have a contract with the experienced Glock for another two years and an option on Di Grassi for 2011.
