It was quiet around Nyck de Vries for a while after his forced departure from AlphaTauri in Formula 1. But the Dutchman is back, speaking exclusively to RacingNews365.
“In early December, the FIA Gala took place in Baku, Azerbaijan, where FIA champions received year-end awards, and six world title-winning cars were on display. Nyck de Vries joined the Toyota Gazoo Racing family, which had three of those cars from the World Endurance, Rally, and Rally Raid Championships. De Vries had initially intended to race in Formula 1 for AlphaTauri but was later replaced and has now secured a seat with Toyota in WEC while also returning to Formula E with Mahindra. The Dutch driver is excited about the opportunity to compete in both series. He emphasizes the importance of gaining experience and the impact his F1 journey has had on him. De Vries will learn from his experienced teammates, Kamui Kobayashi and Mike Conway, at Toyota and believes that their collective strength as a team is crucial. He considers winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans as a no-brainer and hopes to rectify Toyota’s defeat in the previous year’s race.”
