'Some drivers were just suicidal a bit in Turn 1.' Ocon has slammed F1 driving standards following the chaos at the penultimate restart in the AustralianGP.
Esteban Ocon says his shunt in the 2023 Australian Grand Prix could have been caused by any number of"suicidal" Formula 1 drivers rather than blaming Alpine team-mate Pierre Gasly.In the climax to a chaotic and controversially handled race, Gasly had lined up fifth for the second red-flag restart but locked up into Turn 1 to avoid clipping Fernando Alonso's Aston Martin.
Despite the race being halted again, which allowed other drivers caught up in an incident-strewn restart, to reclaim their previous positions, the Alpines were too heavily damaged to continue. His take was:"Obviously a very chaotic restart then honestly, it could have been any cars that I collided with."He came and apologised and as I said, it could have been anyone."
Charles Leclerc, Ferrari SF-23, Alex Albon, Williams FW45, Pierre Gasly, Alpine A523, Esteban Ocon, Alpine A523, the remainder of the field at the startHe called Nyck de Vries"suicidal" into the first corner, although Ocon might have been mistaken since it was the other AlphaTauri of Yuki Tsunoda that lunged up his inside into Turn 1.Ocon continued:"My tyres were hot. I didn't feel like it was very slippery.
