Esteban Ocon Expresses Disappointment Over “Worst Qualifying Session of the Year” with Q1 Exit

Despite the setback, Ocon remained optimistic about his prospects for the race, pointing out that he and his team have overcome worse situations in the past and managed to perform well on race days. He expressed the hope that they can bounce back on Sunday.

One notable aspect for Ocon was that his difficulties did not appear to be linked to the specific track or the recent upgrades introduced by the Alpine team. He mentioned that there seemed to be something different causing the issues, and he emphasized the need for a thorough investigation to identify and address the underlying problems.
