WHAT A NOISE!
— Ballon d'Or #ballondor (@francefootball)
It’s just... Esteban Ocon bringing the Trophy!
The award is for the world’s best footballer and is hoste🤡d by France Football - on Tuesday night, it was won by France and Real Madrid pla༒yer Karim Benzema.
But another Frenchman, F1 driver Oco꧋n, was the talk of Paris when he roared up in a car to deliver the award.
It was also the first opportunity to see Ocon and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pierre Gasly, who will be his teammate next season, together.
The French duo will represent French team Alpine and will feature side-by-side in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:F1 2023 driver line-up after Gasly opted to leave AlphaTauri.
The personal relꦑationship between Ocon and Gasly will come under the microscope - they knew each other while growing up in Normandy but have endured a rollerco𝐆aster friendship over the years.
