Esteban Ocon is gearing up for the new Formula 1 season, in which he will once again drive alongside Fernando Alonso for Alpine. Monday night's unveiling of the A522 took place which caused a lot of enthusiasm for Ocon.
Ocon experienced a difficult season start in 2021, but managed to regain control during the course of the year. He experienced his highlight at the Hungarian Grand Prix when he managed to grab victory after a spectacular race. He hopes to achieve this form more often in the current calendar year.

Ocon shows confidence in new car

The driver could not suppress his enthusiasm on Monday night. "I’m very excited, of course, to not only see the A522 for the first time but to drive it for the first time this week," Ocon revealed during the presentation. In doing so, he pointed to the test days scheduled for this week in Barcelona.
"It’s always a privilege to drive a new Formula 1 car for the first time as you know all the hard work that has gone on behind the scenes at both factories in Enstone and Viry from all of the many talented people working in the different departments there. That feeling and responsibility is truly unique and very special. I feel prepared, I feel ready physically, so let’s hit the track and see what we’ve got in our hands this year!”
