Ocon “super disappointed” by his retirement and “annoyed” with Grosjean

Qualified at the door of the Top 10 (11th), Esteban Ocon (Force India) did not see the end of the first lap of the French Grand Prix on Sunday. The 3 GP2015 Series champion gave up after a collision with his compatriot Pierre Gasly (Toro Rosso).

The disappointment wasn't hard to detect in his mixed zone speech. “I had been preparing for this race for a very long time. I've been waiting for this return for a long time. F1 in France in front of all these fans. It is little… "

However, Esteban Ocon wants more from another French driver. « I'm especially angry with Romain (Grosjean). He kicked me for no reason while I was trying to be clean and stay on the track and just do my job. I have a wheel outside the white line, I can't go further to the right, there is no one to the left.", complains the native of Évreux (Eure).

“I don’t really blame Pierre (Gasly) because I might still have had to give up before he hit me. » He must now turn his attention to the next round, starting next week in Austria. “We will quickly move on to something else. Afterwards, it’s certain that there is only one French Grand Prix per year..”
