'Yes, I heard what that guy said...'
Fernando Alonso branded Esteban Ocon “immature”, while saying driving near an Alpine always requires extra caution, following their coming together in the Brazil sprint shootout.
Alonso has a long-standing association with the Enstone-based team, winning his two World Championship titles with their Renault incarnation in 2005 and 2006, while he raced for the outfit under their current Alpine identity until as recently as 2022. Alonso did not depart the team on strong terms though, his move to Aston Martin coming about after Alpine’s reluctance to hand him a long-term deal, his age playing a role in that, while tension and on-track dramas between Alonso and Ocon became more prevalent in the latter stages of their second and final season as team-mates.
The stewards took no further action, though Ocon was clear in his mind that Alonso was to blame, also denying that he had made an error in the lead-up to the collision, with onboard footage showing Ocon seemingly battling a slide which contributed to him drifting towards a slow-moving Alonso and the scene of the accident.
Ocon in the past made a point of aiming to defeat Alonso when they were Alpine team-mates, Alonso referencing this in a savage response to Ocon’s pointing of the finger over their latest flashpoint.“He’s still very immature and hasn’t changed his way of seeing things, but hey, there are other things that don’t change either. He came out behind me like last year and stayed there, like last year. So it’s all normal.
