<\/p>\nF1 ace Esteban Ocon was sick in his helmet during a sweltering Qatar Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
The Frenchman registered an impressive seventh placed finish to bring his points tally for the seaosn up to 44.. Unfortunately, that was not the only thing he brought up, as the Alpine driver admitted he emptied his insides while he was still wearing his helmet.<\/p>\n

Mercedes ace George Russell, who collided with Lewis Hamilton at the first corner, also said he felt like he was going to faint in the searing 33 degree temperatures.
