Okon: We are good, but we have to score more points

After a tied start, Alpine and Ocon found themselves together: they scored points in every race since the Miami Grand Prix, and in Monaco they surprisingly finished on the podium. With the exception of the Canadian race, his teammate Pierre Gasly also finished in the top ten, so it is not surprising that the drivers are more satisfied with their performance.

Ocon, on the other hand, indicated that they could do better if, after convincing time trials, they collected more points on Sundays by making better use of opportunities on the longer stages.

“I definitely feel good and ready for the European double weekend, the Austrian and British races.” – he said in a preview of his team. “I think we’ve had very strong Saturdays since Baku, and we’ve been able to translate that into acceptable results for Sunday. We are now satisfied with our performance.”

“But we’re still not where we want to be and we have to make better use of our chances, which means we should get more points on Sunday. The team has done a good job with both the car and the engine with the improvements – we can take them to the track week after week.” “. highlighted.

“We have a good package with which we can compete with the teams in front of us. We have to do our best if we are to achieve our ambitious goals at the end of the season.” – added the Frenchman, who previously stated that they wanted to cause problems for Mercedes and Ferrari as well.

According to Ocon, for the team to exploit the car’s potential, they will need to have more smooth and problem-free weekends. “You have to go into this weekend on the Austrian track with confidence. This year we were consistently in Q3, and last year we were fifth in the Red Bull Ring. We feel good about the car, it’s doing well, we just have to prove it with two weekends.” Smoother week We know we can bring strong points to the teamHe finished.
