Axed Toro Rosso driver Brendon Hartley is reportedly considering a move to the Formula E racing series for the 2019/20 season.

The Kiwi was released by the F1 team on Tuesday, after a stuttering first full season in Formula One, where he scored four competition points in 21 races, finishing 19th in the Drivers' Championship.

Hartley has been replaced by 22-year-old British/Thai drover Alexander Albon, who will team with Russian Daniel Kvyat in the Red Bull junior team for the 2019 season.

According to motorsport website racer.com, Hartley is currently evaluating a number of different racing opportunities for 2019, with the end of the year set to see a Porsche factory team enter Formula E.

The 29-year-old has strong connections to Porsche, having won two Word Endurance Championship (WEC) titles with the German manufacturer as well as the 2017 Le Mans 24 Hour race.
