Esteban Ocon managed to win his very first Formula 1 podium on Sunday in Bahrain. The Renault driver is overjoyed and says his and the team's hard work has finally paid off.
"I have no words. I cried on the line. It's been a tough season and we kept working and stayed motivated. We believed in ourselves. It's hard work and it paid off," Ocon said after the race.
"Daniel is a fantastic benchmark and is in his second season with Renault and to close the gap to him is the cherry on the cake," the Frenchman added.
