Formula 1 has more than two races to play in the World Cup calendar and it is now clear that Marcus Ericsson will be at Indycar next year.
But Eric 's manager, Eje Elgh, already hints that the hope is to return to Formula 1, perhaps already by the year 2020.
But of course, the atrial broker must show results in Indycar.
The stand calls Schmidt Peterson Motorsports and Ericsson becomes the second Swedish driver of the series. Felix Rosenqvist will drive for Chip Ganassi Racing.
And Marcus Ericsson recounts how excited he is with his new position at the top.
"The Indycar contests are incredible and I am very happy to be in this competition, I will learn a lot about the courses, especially the oval courses, which will not be easy, but I see it as a I'm looking forward to it and I can hardly deliver myself, "said Ericsson in a statement posted on Spmindycar.com.
See the live broadcast of Sport after the release of the news in the readers below:
Ericsson's director and consultant, Eje Elgh, who presented a plan in Barcelona when the information was confirmed, explains to Sport how the process unfolded until publication.
"The process was pretty straightforward, as it turned out that Marcus was wanted in several places and stables, but what other stands that showed interest, I can not handle.
In addition to the strong interest of Indycar, Ericsson has also been fired from other series, says Elgh. Among other things, the World Endurance Championship (WEC) and Formula E will sign a contract with him.
But eventually, Marcus Indycar chose, and the contract covers a season.
A fact that Eje Elgh means is perfect for a possible return to Formula 1.
"One year was all we wanted, and many pilot contracts expire in F1 after 2019," says Elgh.
How do you feel now when everything is finished?
– Nothing special. Autumn always contains the same ingredients. It was the second best after F1, and you should be satisfied. It was shameful to be forced to close a deal where Marcus had directed something that did not inspire him. Indycar will be a fun and challenging challenge.
