As revealed by Autosport ahead of the Chinese GP, the FIA, FOM and F1 teams are to discuss the idea of increasing the points-scoring positions down to 12th, two more than currently on offer.
The change would result in just eight cars not scoring points in Sunday races.
While that means that Alpine driver Ocon would have scored his first points of 2024 in the Chinese GP last weekend, the Frenchman thinks the main issue remains that the midfield teams are too far off the frontrunning squads.
"It's putting a plaster on a big cut, let's call it like this," said Ocon when asked about the new points system.
"It's a way of helping the current situation, I think.
"It would definitely work because we would have been scoring points today. But I would prefer to be able to race at the front and to have every team closer.
"I think it is fair to say that it is a small gain on what we are trying to do: making all the cars closer," added Ocon, who finished the Shanghai race in 11th place.
