Newly-crowned Formula E champion and former Toro Rosso driver Jean-Eric Vergne says he has been contacted by an F1 team over a 2019 race seat.
Former Red Bull junior Vergne, who drove for the outfit's junior team between 2012 and 2014, has not been on the grid since he was dropped at the end of that spell. He has found success away from F1, winning FE with Techeetah this year and claiming provisional victory in the LMP2 class at the Le Mans 24 Hours, only to see the title stripped from his team due to a technical infringement.
