Esteban Ocon could not hide how much he enjoyed the fight he had with Lewis Hamilton during the Japanese Grand Prix.
The Frenchman scored a season best fourth place at Suzuka on Sunday with a fine drive for Alpine, as the team earned a very welcome double points finish after their double retirement at Singapore the weekend prior.
Indeed, that’s got them back above McLaren in the standings and the fight for fourth looks as though it could only intensify further in the final four races of the campaign.
Ocon certainly had to work for his fourth place during the Grand Prix, however, with Hamilton hounding him for much of the race.
