Esteban Ocon on Zandvoort race – More of the same!

Esteban Ocon enters the week in Zandvoort on a high, after a strong recovery drive from sixteenth on the grid to finish seventh at Spa-Francorchamps. The Frenchman will be hoping for a similar points haul this weekend, in what will be his second-ever Dutch Grand Prix in Formula 1.

You must still be quite pleased with how last weekend at Spa unfolded?

“Spa was one of the best weekends we’ve had as a team. I felt happy with the balance of the car and credit to the team for delivering a car which was flying all weekend. It was a great Qualifying session on Saturday and a smooth race on Sunday, despite the engine penalty, and we collected some solid points with both cars in the top ten.

Spa is always a very special place and I am very glad that we will be coming back next year. In the end, we left Belgium very satisfied, but the focus has now fully shifted on the upcoming race and we’ve got to make sure we carry this momentum heading into our Dutch Grand Prix weekend.”
 

What are your memories of Zandvoort and do you enjoy driving here?

“It’s great to come back to such a historical circuit like Zandvoort. Of course, the sport made a comeback to The Netherlands last year and I also raced there in DTM in 2016 so I know the circuit and enjoy driving it for sure. The contrast between Zandvoort and Spa is huge.

We go from long and flowing laps to a much shorter and very twisty track. It’s a cool circuit, really undulating, fast and flowing which requires a huge amount of focus and commitment.

The setting is also pretty spectacular, being right on the beach, and it is also very close to Amsterdam which is always a cool and vibrant city to visit. And the fans really put on a great show, the atmosphere all weekend is electric.”
 


Is there a part of the circuit you’re excited to be racing on again?

“The whole track is pretty exciting but maybe the banking at the end of the lap is always a fun one. It doesn’t resemble any other corner in Formula 1, so that’s pretty cool. It’s a narrow track which doesn’t make overtaking too easy so our starting grid position will be very important again this weekend.

Overall, our target remains the same. Have a smooth weekend and maintain our points run in order to consolidate our fourth position in the championship even further.”
