Force India's Esteban Ocon thinks that there are chances for his team to collect points this weekend in Baku, as the team eyes a double points finish in Azerbaijan after scoring only one point so far this season.

It's been a disappointing season so far for the Pink Panthers, as they can't seem to find the pace that they had in the last two seasons when they finished fourth in the constructors' championship.

Esteban Ocon does think that there are possibilities to farm some points in Baku, even though he collided with his teammate Sergio Perez last season.

"Baku is really fun, it's so fast with the longest straight of the season, which is unusual for a street circuit," Ocon said.

"Last season might have been the best race of the year for the fans.

"There's certainly a chance to score points, we're getting better every race and the guys in the factory are working hard to improve performance.
