di Piero Ladisa5 August, 2021
The race that took place on Sunday at the Hungaroring was full of emotions and twists and turns which saw Esteban Ocon triumphant in his first historic victory in his career. The Frenchman from Alpine was the protagonist of a good duel with Vettel's Aston Martin, which put a lot of pressure on Ocon as stated by the person concerned.
"It was tough with Seb putting a lot of pressure on – underlined Ocon, quoted by Formula1.com – It gave me a hard time, but you know, when you're ahead, you have clean air and so you're the one who sets the pace on a track like that. Sebastian made a slow pit stop, that's probably what made the difference because that probably would have cut us off".
