2017 Austrian Grands Prix

Ocon getting a lot of flack from mean spirited Checo fans:

SILVERSTONE (UNITED KINGDOM) (AFP) - Force India driver Esteban Ocon has blocked fans of his team-mate Sergio Perez from his Twitter account because of hostile abuse.



The two men have clashed on track in recent races, notably at the Canadian and Azerbaijan Grands Prix, but they have settled their differences amicably.
Their fans have found that more difficult, however, and Mexican Perez?s supporters have insulted Ocon and his family with such intensity that that he felt had no other option.
"I blocked them because they insulted my parents, and that is not healthy," Ocon told reporters at the British Grand Prix on Friday.
"It's just a sport. We fight hard, but we're not murderers. So people need to calm down."
The Frenchman added that he had no concerns about travelling to Mexico later this year for the Mexican Grand Prix.
"I never said anything bad about Mexico. I like the country, I had a great time there in the past and I have a good relationship with Sergio."

Ocon has made some mistakes of aggression, but as a rookie he is a great talent. Good luck to them both!
