Force India driver, Esteban Ocon, spoke openly with the renowned F1 magazine; F1 Racing. During the conversation in Paris, Ocon told what the fallout in Baku did with his emotions.
Ocon qualified in seventh for the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, but on the first lap of the race, he was knocked out by Kimi Raikkonen. To make matters even worse, Raikkonen finished on the podium and team-mate Sergio Perez stood alongside him.
Describing the ordeal, Ocon said: "[It was] a bitter pill to swallow, the qualification was great and the pace in the race was fine," said the Frenchman.
"When the race was over, the tears came: "I cried after the finish. Life goes on, however. So there are many good circuits for us, such as the Italian Monza. Although we are not at the level of last year in terms of development, I hope that it will get better, "says Ocon.
