McLaren will also be active in Formula E from next year, it was announced on Saturday. The British racing stable is taking over the Formula E team from Mercedes, where reigning world champion Nyck de Vries is under contract.

Mercedes announced in August that it would stop the project in the electric racing class. The German racing stable reported, three days after De Vries had won the world title, that it will focus more on Formula 1.

In addition to the Dutch world champion, former Formula 1 driver Stoffel Vandoorne is under contract with Mercedes. It is still unclear whether the Dutchman and the Belgian will drive for McLaren in 2023 due to the takeover.

The concrete plans and driver choice will be announced later, but McLaren writes that it is expected that the reigning world champion will become part of the “McLaren Racing family”. Ian Jame, who is now in charge of Mercedes’ Formula E team, will also become McLaren’s team boss.
