Jeremy Clarkson has made good on his promise to Alpine. The Briton announced on Twitter that if Esteban Ocon finished on the podium in Monaco, he would provide everyone with a beer at the French team. On Twitter, Alpine shared funny pictures of Clarkson coming to deliver the beer with a tractor.

On Twitter, Clarkson said the following during the Monaco race weekend: "Come on Alpine, I'll buy you all a pint if you get a podium here." Ocon had a great qualifying in Monaco and was allowed to start the race third due to Charles Leclerc's penalty.

In the end, the Frenchman managed to turn his third starting position into a podium despite the chaos caused by the rain, leaving Clarkson owing the French team a lot of beers. Fortunately for the Brit, he has had his own brand of beer since 2021, which he was able to hand out to the Alpine staff, with Clarkson arriving at the French team's factory with a tractor and a trailer full of beer.
