Esteban Ocon’s move to Alpine in numbers
French driver secured a win for Alpine in 2021. He also climbed the podium on several occasions. To highlight his time within the French team, let's take a look back at some statistics.
He won’t even reach 110 Grand Prix. He stopped at 106. But since 2020 and his arrival in the team, then called Renault, Esteban Ocon has still made a lasting impression. How can we not mention his victory in Hungary in 2021? Because, yes, he is the only man who has passed through Renault and Alpine since the return to Formula 1 in the modern era.
With the tricolor structure with British touches, the Normand also stepped onto three podiums. We tend to forget, but in Bahrain in 2020, he obtained a second place behind Sergio Perez and ahead of Lance Stroll. And finally, there is the saga in Monaco last year and the one in Brazil this year. Only four boxes, perhaps, but with a car tailored for the midfield, it’s quite remarkable.
