McLaren has been weighing up the idea of Formula E after announcing in January of last year it had signed an option for a future entry in t𒀰he series for the 2022-23 campaign.

It is also considering competing in the 2♓4 Hours of Le Mans by entering WEC.

McLa༒ren is currently in Formula 1,🐼 IndyCar and most recently, entered Extreme E.

Speaking after the season finale in Ab🐎u Dhabi, Brown admitted that entering other motorsport categories need to ‘make sense comm🌄ercially’ for McLaren.

“What’s been driving our time♐line is, if we were to enter, the technical preparation 𝓰that would need to be done to be prepared. 

“We’ve done enough work on both series to be comfortable with the timeline moving a bit. And the reason the timeline is moving a bit is just because we’re not in a position t🐓o make a decision yet. 

“Obviously commercially it needs to make se♔nse 🤡for us. We need to be comfortable where we are at with our IndyCar, Formula 1 and Extreme E teams. We’re ramping up for a third car in IndyCar for the IndyCar Series in 2023. 

“So I thဣink it’s going to be early Q1 before we make ⛄any final decisions.”

On Formula E, Brown said lasဣt year: “We’ve been closely observing Formula E for some time and monitoring the series’ progress﷽ and future direction.

"The opportunity to take an option on an entry, together with the completion of the McLaren Applied supplier contract with the FIA at the end of Gen 2, gives us the necessary time to decide if Formula E is right for Mc🌱Laren as a future competition platform.”
