Martin Brundle heaps praisꦆe on one F1 d𝄹river following an impressive showing in Monaco

Legendary F1 commentator Martin Brundle has lauded 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Esteban Ocon for hi💟s “outstanding” performance at the Monaco Grand Prix.
Ocon finished seventh in Monaco on Sunday, giving Haas their best-ever result in the principali🌼ty.
The Frenchman ha꧃s delivered a number of impressive performances in Monaco over the years, finishing third for Alpine in 2023.
Ocon produced another impressive lap to make it into Q3, resulting ⛄in jubilant celebrations ovꦿer team radio.
Even without the help of teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Ollie Bearman, who started from the back of the grid due to a penalty for a red flag infringement, Ocon came home in seventh, just behind Racing Bull’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Isack Hadjar.
🍌Ocon has now scored 20 of Haas’ 26 points in F1 2025🅠, putting them sixth in the constructors’ standings.
In his post-race co🤪lumn for Sky Sports, Brundle noted Ocon’s “under-the-radar” 💙display.
“When we look at the results a🐎fter all the hype and discussion pre-race about the two-stop rule, pretty much nothing changed,” Brundle wrote.
“Lewis Hamꦐilton’s Ferrari, penalised on the grid, passed Isack Hadjar’s impressively-driven Racing Bull in the pit ⛄stop phase.
“Sadly, Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso had a car failure and re🧔tired. Both of those things would have happened anyway. Along with Racing Bulls’ Hadjar an💧d Liam Lawson in sixth and eighth, and Williams’ Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz in ninth and 10th, another impressive performance was Esteban Ocon who finished an outstanding if under-the-radar seventh in his Haas, without any help from a teammate roadblock.”
Ocon pleased Haas “didn’t put a foot wrong”
While it’s not been completely plain༒-sailing for Ocon following his switch from Alpine to Haas, the Frenchman has delivered a number of big results for the American outfit in 2025.
Ocon finished fifth in China, moving up a couple of places after the two Ferraris were disqualified for technical infri꧑ngements.
He also finished eighth in Bahrain.
Ocon put together a faultless weekend in Monaco to secure ဣseven🅠th.
“I think it’s been a great weekend all around,” Ocon said after the race in Monaco. “We really didn’t put𒀰 a foot wrong from Qualifying to the race.
“We put every🧸thing together when it mattered, so really happy for that. It’s six points for the team which is a big thing, so I’m really satisfied with this.
“We did make a lot of progress all the way to Qualifying. This is s༺uper positive and we♏ need to take that into account and really look into how we can get more consistency out of the other weekends.”
