Esteban Ocon has lashed out at teammate Sergio Perez after the two came together in Belgium. The incident comes after a season of tension between the pair, as it is not the first time both drivers have clashed in the calendar year.
On the opening lap, Ocon was squeezed by Perez into the wall as they approached Eau Rouge. Neither driver came away with severe damage, but that was not the case further on into the race, when they both came together at the same part o the track.
When asked after the race if he thinks Perez knew he was alongside him, Ocon replied: "Of course he knew. "I accept the first one. we are three wide, maybe he didn't see me, even if I think he saw me.
"The second one is just the one too much, risking our life for nothing... he risked my life in there at 300 km/h down by Eau Rouge, that's the first thing. He's supposed to be a professional driver, today he hasn't shown it, he hasn't done that with any other team-mates, I don't know why he's doing it with me."

Perez is only there now because of the money he brings, he's shown his attitude out of the car is bad and in the car he makes mistakes and is dangerous at times, your time is running out, no wonder Ferrari didn't want you.
