Esteban Ocon is at a turning point in his career. After many years at Alpine, the Frenchman was not retained and chose to relaunch with Haas. Although he has already completed tests in Abu Dhabi at the end of the season, Ocon will still have the opportunity to refine his relationship with his new team. He will therefore leave for two days of private testing on the Jerez de la Frontera circuit, in Spain. However, Formula 1 only allows these tests with cars more than two years old.
Ocon on track Thursday
It will mainly be a question for Haas and Esteban Ocon of developing understanding with the engineers and resolving adjustments. The Frenchman will thus be at the wheel of the VF-23 and will drive on Thursday January 16 in the morning. 24 hours earlier, it will be his new teammate Oliver Bearman who will be behind the wheel.
To summarize
Esteban Ocon will have the opportunity to refine his understanding with his engineers during tests organized by Haas in Spain, on the Jerez de la Frontera circuit. The Frenchman changed teams during the offseason.
