#happy that he mentioned his lotus days it always bugged me why the marketing team didn't do anything with that

@/EstebanOcon:

BWT Alpine F1 Team and I have agreed together to part ways at the end of the 2024 F1 season.

The Enstone-Viry family has played a significant part in my life, dating back to my Lotus junior programme days. I feel incredibly lucky and privileged to have achieved the things I did with this team, from my first podium to my first win in Formula 1. These achievements truly were dreams come true.  

I’ve crossed paths with so many inspiring individuals in my time here and there are too many people to thank for their hard work, passion, and dedication to the cause. But also for their kindness and support I received over the years. We had many ups and certainly some downs, but all I can say is that it was an honour racing alongside you, whether you were at the factories or trackside.

Still, there is a long way to go this season and my focus and energy is 100% dedicated to this team and the work we need to do together to move forward and maximise our results on track.

Like many drivers this season, a lot has been said about my future beyond 2024. News will be announced in due course.

Un petit mot en français à tous les supporters tricolores qui ont été derrière moi et cette équipe depuis toutes ces années. Merci infiniment pour votre soutien et votre amour, j'espère pouvoir continuer à vous rendre fiers.
