First team shows interest in De Vries

Could Nyck de Vries be on course for a new challenge after his F1 departure? The first team is already reportedly on the hunt for his signature.

There has reportedly been interest already for Nyck de Vries after AlphaTauri severed ties midway through the 2023 Formula 1 season. The Dutchman was dropped in favour of Daniel Ricciardo, who makes his F1 return with the team at the Hungarian Grand Prix. De Vries, who won the 2020/21 Formula E World Championship, has reportedly gained interest from Nissan as they look to replace Norman Nato for next season. Nissan Formula E Team Principal, Tommaso Volpe, told The Race : "He’s of interest as one of the drivers available for next season. He is interesting as a world champion, but I cannot confirm what we are doing.” The Dutchman would likely be considered alongside Oliver Rowland for the seat.
