Esteban Ocon issues scathing review over his ‘disappointing’ F1 career
Esteban Ocon has achieved one grand prix victory in his F1 career, which he describes as “disappointing.”
Despite competing in F1 since 2016, Ocon’s success has been limited, with only one grand prix win at the 2021 Hungarian Grand Prix for Alpine.
Although in contention for a Mercedes seat, Ocon has primarily found himself in midfield battles and has only secured four podium finishes, the latest being at the 2024 Brazilian Grand Prix.
Following a subpar performance at Haas in the 2026 season, Ocon must prove his worth to secure a contract extension beyond 2026.
Facing stiff competition from younger talents like Oliver Bearman, Ocon’s future in F1 remains uncertain, with the possibility of being phased out of the sport if he fails to deliver consistent results.
