Esteban Ocon

BWT Alpine F1 Team
France
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Ocon returns to Alpine in 2023 after a relatively successful 2022 season. He finished eighth in the standings, equaling his best season performance since his first full-time season in 2017. His average finish in the 22 races was 9.1 despite an average start of 12.0. His best finish came late in the year at Suzuka. Ocon's consistent points finishes along with that fourth-place Suzuka finish late in the season demonstrate Alpine's ability to continue extracting speed throughout the course of the season. A big question for 2023 will be how much of that car development is lost with former champion Fernando Alonso leaving the team. However, a focus for Ocon personally will be improving his single-lap pace in qualifying. Getting more out of qualifying will put him in position for even better results in 2023, and podium finishes should be within reach. Read Past Outlooks
Runner-up Finish in Brazil
Formula One
November 3, 2024
Ocon finished second in the Sao Paulo Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Interlagos Circuit on Sunday afternoon.
ANALYSIS
Ocon would score his first podium of the season and first since the 2023 season with a brave drive in the rain in Brazil on Sunday afternoon. He would start fourth on the grid and decide not to pit during green-flag pit stops and cycle into the lead when George Russell came to pit road. A big crash by Franco Colapinto on lap 31 would bring out the red flag and give the Alpine veteran a chance to pit prior to it. That would lock Ocon into the lead for the restart and he would lead several laps before succumbing to Max Verstappen on lap 42. He'd fall well back of the Red Bull Racing star but hang on to collect just the third podium finish of his career.
