🗣 'It's going to be very bumpy.' Esteban Ocon believes the 2022 F1 cars are going to behave like go-karts over the bumps and kerbs of the SingaporeGP track:

The new cars have been already proved to be tricky at similar temporary venues such as Montreal and Baku earlier this season.

While bouncing has to some degree been dialled out at recent events, it is expected to be more prominent once again in Singapore, which F1 will visit next weekend for the first time since 2019. "It's going to be very bumpy,” said Ocon. “A big challenge I think for us, very physical. I love Singapore. But the track itself is not my favourite. They are go-karts on kerbs, it's going to be a tricky one.

"It's not going to be fun. But we're up for the challenge. And I think it's going to be interesting also to see who chooses what, in terms of set-up. If you go for the car that rides well, or the car that has grip." Asked if it might be the worst track of year, he said:"I think Canada has been pretty bad. But probably it will be one of the worst ones. It always is, it's not news."

**A big challenge I think for us, very physical. I love Singapore. But the track itself is not my favourite** Ocon sure talks like one who won't ever win let alone a podium

Indeed, but with the drivers surviving Baku and Canada, I'm sure they will be able to get through the Singapore weekend just fine. The fans reckon Ocon is just getting his excuses in early should he have a coming together with the barriers

More Mercedes crying then
