F1 | Ocon attacks Raikkonen: “Clear with him? He doesn't speak and I don't know what to say to him"

A few days after the last Azerbaijan Grand Prix, the fourth round of the 2018 Formula One World Championship, Esteban Ocon returned to talk about the contact at the start with Kimi Raikkonen, revealing how there was no clarification with the Ferrari standard bearer.

According to the Frenchman, in fact, Kimi is not a very talkative guy and any comparison would be completely useless, especially after the lack of penalty at the end of the race.

Ocon highlighted how the placings obtained by the Finn do not reflect Ferrari's current potential and that Force India itself, thanks to its imprudence at the start, missed a great opportunity to get both cars into the top five. The former Manor, we remember, passed the first corner in fifth position and, considering the technical problems of the two Red Bulls of Max Verstappe and Daniel Ricciardo, could easily aspire to a top placing.

Here are the words of Esteban Ocon: “Sunday's race was a real shame. I made a great start and managed to overtake Kimi before turn 2. I was in front with almost the entire car, but then I don't know what I did. He released the brakes and came at me."

“It was a missed opportunity for both of us because, after that start, I could have scored a good number of points, while he played for the victory. I didn't clarify with him also because I wouldn't know what to tell him. He doesn't speak and therefore it would be useless to start the conversation. The only thing I can say is that he has made several mistakes and is not in the position he should be in with a Ferrari.", he added.
