F1: 4 Potential team mates for Carlos Sainz at McLaren

#3 Esteban Ocon

Ocon may want out of Force India

The last few weeks at Force India have been tricky for the driver Esteban Ocon and Sergio Perez.

After the team had to go into administration, they were on the lookout for a new buyer/investor.

And that's where Lance Stroll's father, Lawrence Stroll, ran in and saved the day by investing in the Silverstone based team. The rumours now suggest Lawrence's son is the hot favourite to be driving in the pink panther next year.

With Perez showing his commitment by helping the team avoid sacking over 200 members of staff last month, it looks as though Ocon is out of favour at Force India.

That said Ocon confidently said in a recent interview with Motorsport.com that he expects to be driving for Mercedes in the future.

Well, he won't be in 2019 as Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas have just signed their contract extensions with the silver arrows...

Well, this is awkward!
