In an exchange with the host about the first round of the season he said “I’m going, just whether I’m driving or not is not confirmed yet” and Piers confirmed he’ll be taking his helmet, just in case he gets the call.  84:28

If Piers does get nod, it’s widely expected that he will be racing with Falcon Motorsport for whom he recently tested at the media day at Rockingham.
