Nyck de Vries' time in F1 might not be over as Red Bull are reportedly considering recalling the Dutch driver as a reserve driver for the Mexican GP weekend.
De Vries' Formula 1 career at AlphaTauri lasted only 10 races as he was axed by Red Bull after the British GP. Daniel Ricciardo, who served as the reserve driver for Red Bull, replaced the outbound Dutchman, leaving his role as the third driver for the senior team.
Liam Lawson currently serves as the reserve driver for Red Bull but is also busy fighting for the title in the Super Formula series. Lawson has clashing schedules as his final two rounds of the Japanese series are on the same date as the Mexico GP on October 27-29.

Exploring Nyck de Vries' next step following his F1 exit
Nyck de Vries has not yet announced his next step in his motor racing career but has confirmed a change in direction as he is set to pursue his academic goals.
Following in the footsteps of former F1 driver Nicholas Latifi, the former Formula E and F2 champion has announced his plans to enroll in a course at Harvard.
"I've never studied before in my life, in fact, I didn't even finish high school," he said to RacingNews365.com
"But in September I'm going to take a course at Harvard. Negotiation and Leadership, a little bit of studying. More because I just like it now that I have some time and the interest to learn other things," he added.
Nyck de Vries is likely to return to Formula E or Endurance racing as he has previously achieved success there.
