After the explosion, silence reigned most of the time in the Nek de Vries camp. The former AlphaTauri driver has now decided to take some time to himself. The Dutchman will do this for a while, to arrange everything. “Thank you to everyone who has sent me warm messages over the past few weeks,” he shared on Instagram before hitting the pause button again.
“After recent events, I decided to take some time for myself,” Nyck de Vries Instagram opened. “And so I’m taking a break from social media.”
The Dutch driver lost his seat at AlphaTauri after just 10 races in Formula 1. Yet he holds no grudge against his former employer.
“I would like to thank everyone at Red Bull and AlphaTauri for the opportunity to live my dream. Of course it hurts that my childhood dream of driving in Formula 1 ended so early.”
“But life is not about the end,” he continues his philosophical walk. “It’s about the way there. It’s hard sometimes to get where you want to be.”
Now it’s up to me to look forward to the next chapter.
“I am grateful for our privileged lives,” de Vries says of his brief F1 circus ride. “Just as I am proud of the track and my family.”
“Now it’s up to me to look forward to the next chapter.”
He thanks all of his fans for the kind messages and nods with a wink to the journalists who diligently delved into their pen.
“I’ve been reading interesting articles the past few weeks. I haven’t spoken to anyone yet. I’m going to have fun now.” time for me I wish you all a nice summer! “
Teammate Zhou Guanyu (Alfa Romeo) has already encouraged the Dutchman in the comments.
“Subtly charming internet specialist. Avid writer. Friendly alcohol guru. Music ninja. Devoted social media fanatic.”
