In the high-stakes world of Formula 1, rivalries often ignite fierce competition and intense on-track battles. One such rivalry took center stage last year when Esteban Ocon and Fernando Alonso collided during the Sprint race at Interlagos. The pair who were teammates at Alpine last year, have had their fair share of on-track clashes, with the most recent incident occurring at the Spanish Grand Prix. However, in a surprising twist, Ocon has now paid tribute to his former teammate, Alonso, while also revealing his own lifelong dream.

In a heart-stopping moment, Alonso made a last-minute move on Ocon during the race, coming dangerously close to shoving him into the wall. However, Ocon managed to hold his ground, and both drivers survived the encounter, with Alonso finishing in an impressive seventh place. The incident reignited the spotlight on their relationship and the tensions that have been brewing between them.

With deep respect and admiration, Ocon praised his competitor, affirming that Alonso continues to operate at the highest level. Having competed alongside Alonso in recent years, Ocon recognized him as one of the best drivers ever to grace the sport. With humility and a desire to reach similar heights, Ocon took his hat off to the remarkable talent of Fernando Alonso.
