Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon “don’t get on”, says Paul di Resta, ahead of potential Alpine link-up
French F1 drivers Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon have an uneasy relationship, revealed Paul di Resta, despite rumours they are set to become teammat꧅es.
Alpine are searching for a driver to pair with Ocon in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2023 driver line-up after losing Fernando Alonso to Aston Martin, and their desired replacement Oscar Piastri reportedly to McL💜aren.
Rumours linked AlphaTauri driver Gasly, who is contracted until th🌜e end of 2023, with a switch to Alpine. That would give the French team two French dri💧vers - but also two rivals…
ꩲ“It’s no secret that he and Ocon don’t necessarily get on too well,” ex-F1 driver di Resta said on Sky.
“I don’t think too m🍃any teammates get on withꦫ Ocon, to be honest.
“You heard Fernando on the radio. They work together on trac💧k but off it? He can be quite difficult. Sergio Perez had the same is🀅sue.
“This is about compensation for [A❀lpine] to be💝 able to then get Gasly.
“A double-French line-up would be great.
“Gasly in that system, with the w🧜ay he is drivin✅g, would be a credit.”
Sky’🐻s Rachel Brookes added: “I find O☂con nothing but charming!”
