After a rocky departure from Alpine, where his tenure ended on a sour note, Esteban Ocon has embraced a new opportunity following his recent move to Haas.

As an ambassador for the Charles Pozzi Group, a luxury car dealer based in Paris, Ocon recently received a stunning Ferrari 296 GTB. This partnership marks a fresh start for the Frenchman as he transitions from Alpine to Haas, a Ferrari customer team that uses power units and other components supplied by the Maranello squad.

The Ferrari 296 GTB is equipped with the prestigious Fiorano handling package, which includes various performance upgrades and numerous luxury features. Esteban Ocon will undoubtedly enjoy the high-performance characteristics of this model, showcasing the power and elegance of the Ferrari brand.

The turbulent exit from Alpine and a new story with Haas
Esteban Ocon's departure from Alpine was marked by a clash with teammate Pierre Gasly during the Monaco Grand Prix. Shortly thereafter, Alpine confirmed Esteban Ocon’s exit, leaving him searching for a new F1 team.

In the end, Esteban Ocon decided to join Haas, finding not only a new team but also the opportunity to own a Ferrari of his own.
