Ocon reassures after Renault’s disappointing Turkish GP

Renault fell a bit behind in the battle for third in Turkey and now even have to look back, because Ferrari are very close. According to Esteban Ocon, however, the team does not need to worry.

The 2020 Formula 1 season is particularly exciting behind Mercedes and Red Bull Racing. McLaren, Racing Point, Renault, Ferrari and sometimes AlphaTauri are fighting for the points and that results in an exciting championship. However, Renault were hit hard in Turkey because they only managed to score one point.

Because of that one point, Renault are suddenly eighteen points behind Racing Point and thirteen points behind McLaren. In addition, Ferrari has also suddenly come closer and the Italians are only six points behind the French. With three races to go, however, anything is still possible and Ocon thinks that those races are in Renault's favour.

''I think we generally perform very well when it is very hot. Normally we can handle the tyres very well on these kind of heavy circuits, so I am really looking forward to it. The car has always done well this season in these kinds of conditions, so I have no doubt it won't be good for the weekend either," said the Frenchman according to Racefans.net.
