Description:
Today we're going to tell you the story behind Nyck de Vries’s crazy 24 hours in Monza.

It was the ultimate job interview for a 2023 Formula 1 contract.

At last weekend’s Singapore Grand Prix we were delighted to see Alex Albon return after an emergency appendectomy and serious complications, ultimately requiring him to be put on a ventilator.
 
 It was because Albon couldn’t drive at Monza that Nyck de Vries was thrust into the limelight, scoring points with a stunning debut drive.  And now Autosport sources expect him to partner Yuki Tsunoda at Alpha Tauri next season.
 
Today:
   
  • Find out about the 60 minute warning he had to ‘suit up’
  • His circuitous route to F1, and whether that was looking likely before his Monza performance
  • After scoring points on his debut, which other F1 drivers have done the same?
 
Let's get up to speed with Autosport's Jake Boxall-Legge.
