Ocon played it “too safe” with last-lap yellow flag after losing place to Lindblad | Formula 1

Esteban Ocon expressed regret over his performance during the final lap of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, where he lost a position to Arvid Lindblad. Ocon stated that he played it "too safe" while navigating a yellow flag situation, which allowed Lindblad to overtake him just before the finish line.

The incident occurred as both drivers approached a yellow flag caused by Valtteri Bottas' crash. Ocon noted that the chaotic circumstances influenced his decision-making, ultimately leading to his narrow defeat by Lindblad, who finished just seven hundredths of a second ahead.
