5-Second False Start Penalty
Ocon finished 15th the Qatar Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Lusail International Circuit on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Ocon would line up P16 on the starting grid and he'd get around Yuki Tsunoda on the first lap. However, replays would show the Haas F1 veteran moving in his starting box prior to the lights out. The Stewards would slap Ocon with a 5-second penalty for a false start. He would stay out during the lap 7 safety car in which most of the field would pit. The hope was to grab easy track position up to P4 before conducting his own stop the next lap. Ocon would rejoin at the back and the gambit would not pay off. The veteran driver would claw his way past Pierre Gasly and later Lance Stroll to earn a 15th-place finish in Qatar.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Ocon returns to Alpine in 2023 after a relatively successful 2022 season. He finished eighth in the standings, equaling his best season performance since his first full-time season in 2017. His average finish in the 22 races was 9.1 despite an average start of 12.0. His best finish came late in the year at Suzuka. Ocon's consistent points finishes along with that fourth-place Suzuka finish late in the season demonstrate Alpine's ability to continue extracting speed throughout the course of the season. A big question for 2023 will be how much of that car development is lost with former champion Fernando Alonso leaving the team. However, a focus for Ocon personally will be improving his single-lap pace in qualifying. Getting more out of qualifying will put him in position for even better results in 2023, and podium finishes should be within reach.
