"It's been a significant period of my life to
be racing at this team in Formula One," Ocon said in a
statement. "While I've been here for five years as a full-time
racing driver, my professional career started at Enstone back
when I was a teenager, so it will always be a special place for
me.
"We have had some great moments together, some tough moments as
well, and I am certainly grateful to everyone at the team for
these memorable times. I will announce my plans very soon but,
in the meantime, my full focus is on delivering on track for
this team and having a successful remainder of the season."
Ocon, who previously had been linked with a potential move to
the Sauber/Audi team, has one top-10 finish in eight starts this
season. He finished eighth at last month's Miami Grand Prix.
Alpine team principal Bruno Famin had warned "there would be
consequences" after Ocon collided with teammate Pierre Gasly at
the Monaco Grand Prix on May 26.
