Nyck de Vries is keeping his cards close to his chest when it comes to a potential move to McLaren's upcoming Hypercar program. The Dutch driver, who currently competes for Toyota in the World Endurance Championship (WEC) and races in Formula E with Mahindra, has called McLaren's entry into the top class of endurance racing "fantastic"—but stopped short of confirming any personal involvement.

De Vries already has one foot in the McLaren camp as a test and simulator driver for their Formula 1 team. When the British outfit unveiled its new LMDh prototype, the MCL-HY, after a shakedown in Italy, speculation naturally turned to whether de Vries might be part of the driver lineup when the car hits the track for the 2027 season. His response? A coy "I'll keep that to myself."

Despite the intrigue, de Vries was quick to emphasize that his roles with Toyota and McLaren are "completely separate." He expressed deep satisfaction with his current position at Toyota, calling himself "very happy" within the organization. "Toyota is one of the most successful teams of the past 10 years in this championship," he noted, adding that he sees a long-term future with the Japanese manufacturer.

De Vries' loyalty to Toyota is understandable given recent results. At last month's season opener in Imola, he stood on the podium in third place alongside teammates Mike Conway and Kamui Kobayashi. The sister Toyota, driven by Sebastien Buemi, Ryo Hirakawa, and Brendon Hartley, took the win—proving the team's dominance in the Hypercar class.

But as the WEC heads to Spa-Francorchamps this weekend, the challenge shifts dramatically. The legendary Belgian circuit's fast corners and long straights will test every driver and machine. For de Vries, it's another chance to prove his worth—whether that's with Toyota, McLaren, or somewhere else entirely remains a mystery he's happy to keep.
