He's on a similar level to Ric in terms of making absolutely atrocious business decisions but as a driver, he's easily one of the greatest of all time with a soiled resume because of those moves.
Ocon is ahead of Alonso for very obvious reasons and none of them are skill related. Fernando is 41 years old - he is still capable of winning a championship on the right team. I'm confident that Ocon will never win a championship or come close to it.

Notice, I did qualify that all of my opinions are since his comeback. He isn’t worth what he’s getting paid. He is probably one of the greatest, but I’ve never been a fan, his ego/personality has always rubbed the wrong way. Like most F1 drivers he can do no wrong and everyone else to blame. He just seems to always have taken it to another level IMO.
