FORMULA 1 DRIVER ESTEBAN OCON ANNOUNCES EXCITING NEW COLLABORATION WITH WILLIAMS MARINE GROUP.

Formula 1 driver Esteban Ocon has today announced an exciting new partnership with Williams Marine Group, becoming an official ambassador to promote both Evene and Williams Jet Tenders.

Ocon, a French racing driver currently competing in Formula 1, made his debut in 2016 and claimed his maiden Grand Prix victory at the Hungarian Grand Prix in 2021. Known for his precision, determination, and technical skill behind the wheel, Esteban has built a reputation as one of the grid’s most consistent and hardworking talents. His passion for performance and engineering excellence makes him a natural fit for this collaboration with Williams Marine Group.

As part of this partnership, Esteban will be working closely with the Williams Jet Tenders team to design and customise his own bespoke Williams SportJet 520, the brand’s most powerful model, equipped with a high-performance Rotax engine.

The Origin 57 is the first model in Evene Tenders’ Origin Series, crafted for yachts over 30 metres and accommodating up to nine guests to extend the luxury superyacht experience from sea to shore. It features the innovative Petestep® hull technology for a smoother, quieter, and more efficient ride, alongside sustainably sourced cork decking and removable eco-upholstery, underscoring Evene’s commitment to environmental responsibility. Powered by YANMAR engines compatible with HVO 100 biofuel, the tender reduces net CO₂ emissions by up to 97% compared to standard diesel. Highly customisable, it offers premium amenities and bespoke finishes for a truly personalised experience.

Speaking about the new partnership, Esteban Ocon said: “I have been a big fan of the Williams Jet Tenders brand for some time having spent many holidays using their boats. It is therefore very special to be working with Williams Jet Tenders on building and customising my own boat, the SportJet 520. It is their most powerful model and uses a Rotax engine which is familiar to me from my karting days. The quality and performance of Williams boats are second to none so the collaboration with this iconic British manufacturer is extremely exciting for me personally. I can’t wait to get out on the water!”

Tom Dowdell, Head of Marketing at Williams Jet Tenders and Evene Tenders, added: “We’re thrilled to welcome Esteban to the Williams Marine Group family. His passion for performance, precision, and innovation mirrors our own values as a brand. Seeing someone at the pinnacle of motorsport choose Williams Jet Tenders is a real testament to the quality and reputation of our products. We can’t wait to see Esteban enjoying his customised SportJet 520 on the water.”

The collaboration marks an exciting new chapter for both Esteban and Williams Marine Group, bringing together cutting-edge marine performance and elite motorsport pedigree.
