Biography
Esteban Ocon's career is defined by one word: sacrifice. As a promising karter, his parents sold their house, put careers on hold, living in a caravan, supporting Ocon's career. The sacrifice paid off in 2014 when he won the European F3 title, defeating Max Verstappen. Backed by Mercedes, he clinched the GP3 title in 2015 and transitioned to F1, replacing Rio Haryanto at Manor in 2016. Despite promising performances with Force India, financial changes led to Ocon's sidelining in 2018. After a year as Mercedes' reserve driver, he returned to race with Renault in 2020, earning Alpine's first F1 win in 2021. Ocon's journey reflects self-belief, determination, and undeniable talent.
