E🍸steban Ocon has branded his United States Grand Prix disqualification as “stupid” and the “worst feeling ever” after losing his lat♔est Formula 1 points finish.

The Force India driver finished eighth on the ro🏅ad at 🉐the Circuit of the Americas but was excluded from the results after being found to have exceeded the legal fuel flow limit on the opening lap of Sunday’s race.

Ocon took to social media following the race to vent his fr🌳ustrations.

“Pushing the♈ whole race, getting good points, and getting disqualified in🐭 the end for a stupid reason is probably the worst feeling ever,” he tweeted.

“Our mistake – anyway not giving up for sure!”

Ocon was joined in being thrown out of the Austin event classification by Kevin Magnussen, who was excluded for consuming more than 105kg of fuel during the race.

It prompted Magnussen to label F1 as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:‘Formula Fuelsaving’ as Haas rounded out its home round without a single point to its 🗹name.

The post-race result changes promoted Sergio Perez up to eighth and Toro Rosso’s Brendon Hartley up to ninth – marking his best result of the season - while Marcus Ericsson also benefitted to take the final poinಌt for Sauber.
