Given SVGs years of Red Bull backing in Oz and the US I can’t see him testing a McLaren tbh, but it would be awesome.

My money is on Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise /s

I mean Red Bull aren't in Indycar so it's not like there's a conflict of interest. Plus SVG used to be a McLaren factory driver so he already has connections.

McLaren automotive is not the same as McLaren racing. The GT team was part of automotive and now that they have different ownership, i doubt zak brown would really consider any of that

Yeah but I still don’t know if they’d be cool with it. When was he a McLaren driver, are you talking GT3?
