Ocon surprised Renault had Red Bull-beating pace

Esteban Ocon says Renault’s speed came as a “good surprise” after he beat Red Bull’s Alexander Albon to fifth position. Renault had the third-fastest package throughout the weekend at Spa-Francorchamps and Daniel Ricciardo equalled the marque’s best result since its return by taking fourth. Ocon embarked in a race-long duel with Albon and eventually prevailed to grab fifth, matching the highest finish of his Formula 1 career. “We were not expecting to be fighting with Red Bull, which was a great thing, a great surprise,” said Ocon.
