Esteban Ocon Grabs Surprising Victory

Fuel Issue Costs Vettel Disqualification

The 2021 Hungarian Grand Prix, officially known as the Formula 1 Rolex Magyar Nagydíj 2021, will be remembered for the maiden victory of Alpine's Esteban Ocon and the thrilling race that preceded it. Despite starting eighth on the grid, Ocon capitalised on chaos and strategy calls to emerge victorious ahead of Sebastian Vettel's Aston Martin and Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes.

The race was marred by a controversial disqualification of Vettel after the post-race fuel sample could not be extracted from his car. The German had crossed the line in second place but was later penalized, handing the podium finish to Hamilton.

The Hungarian Grand Prix was a thrilling and dramatic event that showcased the competitiveness and unpredictability of Formula 1. Ocon's victory will be a major confidence booster for the Alpine team, while Vettel's disqualification will undoubtedly raise questions about Aston Martin's fuel system.
