Drugovich: I'm only focused on Le Mans right now.
Felipe Drugovich stated that he is fully focused on preparing for the 24 Hours of Le Mans: next weekend, the Brazilian intends to start the legendary marathon as part of the Cadillac Whelen team driving a V-Series hypercar.R with tail number 311.
When Lance Stroll was unable to participate in the Spanish Grand Prix, Drugovich expressed his willingness to replace him, if necessary, at the Canadian stage of the season. And although Aston Martin has not made any official statements, information is already emerging that there will be no such need, and we talked about it.
Felipe, 25, works as a reserve driver for the British team, but he also competes in endurance racing, so he is currently at Le Mans with Cadillac Whelen.
When Drugovich was asked if there was a possibility that he might be urgently called to Aston Martin, he replied philosophically.
"All I'm thinking about is that I'm going to have the best race weekend of the year, so I'm in a good mood," Racer quoted Drugovich as saying. – There is a possibility of anything in life, and I do not know how events will develop. But at the moment, I'm focused on Le Mans.
That's exactly what my approach should be. If I keep thinking about what opportunities might present themselves, I'll just start going crazy and won't be able to focus on anything. Therefore, I prefer to perceive everything in a normal way. Nothing has happened in the previous weeks, the Aston Martin team is constantly in touch with me, but it seems that everything remains the same for now."
However, if the situation suddenly changes and the services of Drugovich are needed by Aston Martin F1, then his Cadillac Whelen team may have problems: General Motors does not have an official backup driver this year.
However, according to Racer, everything is moving towards the fact that Stroll will take part in his home Grand Prix, but a final decision should not be expected before next week.
