Esteban Ocon is ready to take on the challenges that one of his favourite tracks on the calendar holds. The Force India driver left Monaco on a high, finishing 6th, the fastest outside of the top three teams.
Canada is one of the most challenging tracks in the world. The weather is variant, the demanding long straights, fast but challenging corners, the circuit has it all and Ocon is ready to get started.
“The Montreal circuit is definitely one of my favourite tracks and it’s a fantastic event,” said Ocon.
“I always say I like chicanes, and that’s almost all you have in Montreal. It’s a challenging and very technical track and I really enjoy driving on it.
“My favourite corner is the final chicane, with the wall of champions so close to you. It’s a tricky corner, and it’s very easy to get it wrong.”
It’s not just Monaco where Ocon will take inspiration from. This time last year in Canada, he and his team-mate finished 5th and 6th. Despite the drama of some team orders, Ocon remembers it as a good weekend.
“Last year we had a really good weekend in Montreal, fighting with the Ferrari’s and coming away with a good result,” added Ocon.
