LONDON (Reuters) - Force India driver Esteban Ocon has offered an olive branch of sorts to Formula One team mate Sergio Perez after publicly accusing the Mexican of twice trying to kill him in Belgium at the weekend.

The 20-year-old said on Twitter on Monday that he had been "very much upset" when he made his comments in the heat of the moment after the two collided during Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix.
