Unlike our former F1 World Champions or Le Mans winners he has shown little enthusiasm to race in Australia.

I could see him at B12 but not in V8s. He has shown little enthusiasm for that category. If he wanted to race in a Porsche at B12 with a few mates I doubt the factory would mind too much unless they wanted him to drive in a certain car. And in his case I don't think we'd see that. His contract prolly covers WEC and promo stuff and that's it. He's not like a regular Porsche factory driver that goes and races wherever they are sent. I'm sure Porsche could ask him nicely but at the end of the day I highly doubt his contract covers anything other then the LMP program.
