After recording the second-best qualifying result of his career with fourth place, Esteban Ocon finished in third place at the 2023 Monaco Grand Prix. This was the 25th podium finish in total for a French driver at the Monaco Grand Prix during its time on the Formula 1 calendar; the first since Olivier Panis in 1996.

Ocon recorded the Enstone team’s first podium result at the Monaco Grand Prix since Robert Kubica, who finished third with Renault in 2010. It was the Alpine team’s first podium finish since the 2021 Qatar Grand Prix.

This was Ocon’s first podium result since his victory at the 2021 Hungarian Grand Prix. He was voted Driver Of The Day; this being the first time he won the accolade.

2023 ITALIAN GRAND PRIX

Esteban Ocon recorded his first Q1 exit at the Italian Grand Prix since his first appearance at the track in 2016. 18th is Ocon’s worst qualifying result of the season to date. He failed to reach Q3 for the sixth consecutive race, which is his longest streak without a Q3 appearance since he failed to qualify in the top ten on any of his first 12 Formula 1 appearances.

Of the 19 drivers who started the 2023 Italian Grand Prix, Ocon was the only one who failed to finish. Ocon recorded his fifth retirement of the 2023 season – and his third in the last five races.

In the race, Ocon recorded his fourth DNF in the last six races. This was Ocon’s third consecutive retirement at the Singapore Grand Prix.

Ocon’s eighth place in qualifying for the 2023 Singapore Grand Prix marked the first time since the British Grand Prix that an Alpine driver appeared in Q3.
