Not a real mclaughlin fan, but in a third car he'd be worth having. Not having a third car means to get this guy , one of the others , most likely Pye are in trouble, . .
Scott McLaughlin has confirmed to supercars.com that he has been approached by DJR Team Penske for his services in 2017 and beyond. Alot of pit lane talk says the 22-year-old kiwi has already agreed to race with the developing DJR Team Penske squad in 2017 but he says he is torn between loyalty to GRM and the potential of other options including Penske and HRT.
The self-managed McLaughlin says he has put his contract talks aside until October who currently sits third in the championship points and remains the only two-race winner so far this season.
“I think I’ve been pretty open with you and all the media,” McLaughlin told ‘Foges’ in an interview on supercars.com.
“I’m not saying discussions haven’t taken place [with DJR Team Penske], that I haven’t spoken to anyone there, but at the end of the day, nothing serious has been put in place.”
“[…] I haven’t signed myself anywhere, I haven’t done anything. I’ve just been trying to find the pros and cons of each place, and at the moment, I’ve been very happy at Garry’s.”
McLaughlin revealed in the interview with Mark Fogarty for Supercars.com, he says the announcement of Volvo and the huge doubt on what GRM will race with in 2017 has made think about his future in more detail.
“Obviously, now, the Volvo deal throws everything out of proportion,” McLaughlin said.
“I’ve been happy with Garry. Garry gave me my shot and at the end of the day, I’d love to win the championship for him and I really think we can do that this year. So my main focus this year is to try to get a championship for him.”
With DJR Team Penske is still finding its feet in Supercars after expanding to two cars this season, it’s the long-term future that makes it a logical fit for McLaughlin, particularly given the potential to race for Team Penske in the USA.
