De Vries Eyes Toyota Move To WEC In 2024

2 years ago By Sports Desk

In the world of motorsport, careers can take unexpected turns, and for Nyck de Vries, the road ahead appears to lead to a thrilling new chapter. After a stint in Formula 1 with AlphaTauri earlier this summer, the Dutch racing sensation is reportedly eyeing a return to the World Endurance Championship (WEC) in 2024, donning the colors of the renowned Toyota Gazoo Racing team.

The Unforgettable Formula 1 Diversion

Nyck de Vries was initially destined for a spot in Toyota’s Hypercar team for the 2023 WEC season. However, the allure of Formula 1 proved irresistible when Red Bull Racing’s AlphaTauri offered him a coveted seat. The opportunity to compete at the pinnacle of single-seater racing is something that every aspiring driver dreams of, and de Vries seized it.

A New Opportunity on the Horizon

Now, as the 2023 motorsport season unfolds, reports suggest that Nyck de Vries is poised to make a full-time return to the WEC with Toyota Gazoo Racing in 2024. While it’s unclear whose race seat he will occupy within the Toyota squad, there is speculation that he may replace the seasoned Jose Maria Lopez in the #7 car, a machine shared by esteemed drivers Kamui Kobayashi and Mike Conway.

A Toyota Homecoming

For Nyck de Vries, this potential move signifies a homecoming of sorts. In 2022, he served as Toyota’s reserve driver, gaining valuable insights and experience with the team. It’s a testament to Toyota’s recognition of his talent and potential that they had initially earmarked him for their WEC Hypercar team.

The 2024 WEC Season Beckons

While the specifics of this exciting development are yet to be officially confirmed, the prospect of Nyck de Vries returning to the WEC is generating considerable buzz in the motorsport community. The 2024 WEC season promises to be an electrifying one, with the Dutch driver’s talents potentially adding more excitement to Toyota’s already formidable lineup.
