We already knew about their already strained relationship! It seems obvious that the impressive clash between Pierre Gasly and his teammate Esteban Ocon didn’t help. Both at Alpine since the 2023 season, they will soon no longer need to cooperate. Indeed, Esteban Ocon recently announced his departure from the French team at the end of the year.<\/p>\n
During the media day of this Canadian Grand Prix, number 10 mentioned this start which doesn’t seem to affect him.<\/p>\n
\u00ab It’s important to be clear: I have nothing to do with Esteban’s relationships with the team. It’s something that is managed between them, that’s why I wasn’t involved in everything that has happened since last week \u00bb, he declared on Canal+.<\/p>\n
The two Normans have known each other since childhood and their beginnings in karting, a time during which their harmony was already not at its best. The fact of being garage neighbors at Alpine obviously did not bring them closer together, as Pierre Gasly expressed in a press conference this Thursday about their sometimes difficult cooperation.<\/p>\n
\u00ab It’s a long story between Esteban and me. And I think that so far, during the year and a half that has passed, we have managed to work and cooperate in a very professional manner. So I think it’s important to mention it. It hasn’t always been easy, as you can imagine with two very competitive drivers.<\/p>\n
Normand then did not wish to elaborate on his own future as his contract with the French team will end at the end of the season. “I think at the moment, the position I’m in is quite clear. As for my future, I have nothing to announce. You will know in due time.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
