Very unlikely. He's being groomed for LMP1, hence why he dropped Super Formula last year to run the full ELMS season + 24h Le Mans.

Granted, I've long been of the opinion that Hirakawa is an F1-caliber driver. He's certainly going to make waves in LMP1 if Toyota gives him even a third car for Le Mans.
