Esteban Ocon – Pierre Gasly, the meeting

Their paths continue to cross. Esteban Ocon et Pierre Gasly, born in Upper Normandy, began with karting (with a title of French KF3 champion at stake for both) before logically heading towards the car. Opponents in FR 2.0, their paths will separate again in 2014 when Ocon will turn towards F3 and Pierre Gasly towards the FR 3.5 with the support of Red Bull.

This year will be the crowning year for Ocon, with the coronation won in F3 European Championship with the Prema Powerteam team. For Gasly, his passage into the premier category of the World Series by Renault will result in a second final place behind the Spaniard Carlos Sainz Jr. At the end of the season, the two young Frenchmen were brought together by the DAMS stable during tests in GP2Series on the Yas Marina route in Abu Dhabi. A taste of 2015?
