Formula One newcomer Esteban Ocon has spoken of his desire to drive for Ferrari in the future, saying it would fulfill a dream of emulating childhood idol Michael Schumacher.
The 19-year-old Frenchman is early into his F1 career and competing for the Manor team, which recently drafted him in after terminating the contract of Indonesian driver Rio Haryanto.
Sunday's Italian GP in Monza - where the seven-time F1 champion Schumacher won 10 years ago - was just Ocon's second F1 race. He came 18th.
