Nyck de Vries has reportedly been taken to court' by a Dutch millionaire, who is accusing him of violating the terms of a loan agreement signed in 2018. De Vries is understood to deny the allegation and asserts that the loan has expired.
De Vries, 27, holds a Formula 1 race seat this year for the first time in his career. He will make his AlphaTauri debut at the first race of the season in Bahrain, having earned that seat on the back of a sensational surprise debut with Williams in Italy last year.
But his preparations appear to have been overshadowed by a reported legal complaint. According to Dutch news outlet Financieel Dagblad, he is being taken to court by millionaire Jeroen Schothorst, who accuses the racer of "systematically withholding information" regarding a loan agreement from 2018.
