Esteban Ocon believes that his sixth-place finish at Monaco could be a result which helps Force India turn a corner in 2018. The team had struggled up to that point relative to their rivals but on the streets, they looked back on form.
Ocon said his car was exactly how he wanted it on race day and was impressed with just how quickly his Force India was able to go.
“The pace we had in the car was unbelievable.
“I was quickest on track at some points which was very, very impressive. I was catching Raikkonen and Bottas by one second a lap at some point.
“I think our understanding of the tyres was really really good, really strong. Today I’m more than happy, the boys are really happy, and I’m looking forward to many more weekends like that.”

Off the back of teammate Sergio Perez's Baku podium and Ocon's strong result in Monaco, the team will be hoping that the power circuit next up in Canada will be suited to their Mercedes power unit.
