Esteban Ocon's weekend so far has been anything but great. The Frenchman's MGU-H already failed during the first free practice, after which his engine had to be replaced for the rest of the weekend. During the third free practice, the Alpine driver stalled once again, after which the red flag was waved 15 minutes into the session. The team will investigate the issue once the car returns to the garage, GPblog can report from the track.
