Nyck de Vries is a Dutch racing driver, currently racing in Formula One for Scuderia AlphaTauri.
Although Nyck is a Formula One rookie for the 2023 season, he’s not your average newbie. Having won 2 world championships in both GP2 series and Formula E, he forged his path in motorsport patiently waiting for a seat in Formula 1. After a brilliant race with Williams as their sub-driver in 2022, the Red Bull family has taken him under their wings and secured him a seat with their sister team: Scuderia AlphaTauri.
Now counting 2 dutch drivers on the grid, the national support Nyck receives is beyond expectations and he will make sure to make his fans proud now his career goal is reached. He has great ambitions, and his previous experiences will make the difference on track.
