On September 17, 1996, the French pilot was born in Evreux Esteban Oconcurrently in force atAlpine in F1. His debut took place in 2016 with Manor, before moving to Force India in the following two years. In 2019 he was a tester Mercedesand then returned to the Circus as a regular driver behind the wheel of the Renaultwhich became Alpine the following year.
Just in 2021, Ocon achieved his only career victory by triumphing in Hungary, and over these years, it has achieved other podiums, the latest of which in Monte-Carlo last year, with a good third place. To date, he is immersed in the technical crisis of the Enstone team, and there is little that can be done to hope to return to the top. The only possibility, which seems concrete, is to leave the team at the end of the year. Let’s find out more about his life.
Ocon, that’s who his girlfriend is
For a few months now, Esteban Ocon is romantically linked to Flavy Barla, medical student, who in 2022 became Miss Côte d’Azur, and then also took part in the final phase of Miss France. Before linking up with Barla, the French driver had been engaged to Elena Berriwith whom he had a long relationship, which lasted from 2018 to last year.
Certainly, Ocon isn’t doing too badly in terms of female company, but this is nothing new for F1 drivers, who are lucky enough to always be able to count on beautiful girlfriends. At the moment, the wedding is not planned, but the couple has often been spotted in the paddock, hand in hand.
The origins of the French pilot
As mentioned, Esteban Ocon was born in 1996, to father Laurent and mother Sabrina, who have always followed their son’s career closely. Unlike many other drivers, his economic situation was not too comfortable, and to support him, his parents decided to leave their jobs and sell their house, moving into a caravan to follow him from race to race. It must be said that Esteban then repaid them in full.
How much does Esteban Ocon earn
In F1 salaries are very high, and according to the information emerging, Esteban Ocon would receive as much as 5.5 million euros per season from Alpine. As mentioned, it is possible that this will be his last season with the Enstone team, but at the moment, his possible future destination is unclear.
How tall is the Alpine standard bearer
Usually, those who compete in the Circus are quite short in stature, but this is not the case for Esteban Ocon, who is 1.86 meters tall, and turns out to be one of the highest in the entire grid. Certainly, his talent deserves other possibilities, and we hope that he will soon get his deserved redemption.
