Max Felstappen, unfortunate second place

Red Bull Honda F1 Max Felstappen finished second in qualifying for the 2020 F1 World Championship Round 14 Turkish GP. He cited the lack of operation of the intermediate tires as the cause of the defeat.

This weekend, Max Felstappen responded well to the repaved surface of Istanbul Park. It didn’t change on Saturday when it was wet, and it was at the top of the timesheets in every session until qualifying, to be exact, Q3.

However, at the end of Q3, when it rained and the road surface dried, it was Lance Stroll, who was in F1’s first pole position, who took the lead on the timesheet. Max Felstappen blamed the failure to get the intermediate tires working in the final stages of qualifying.

After qualifying, Max Felstappen told reporters: “I am a bit disappointed at the moment.”

“Today we were supposed to get a pole. It’s not what we always wanted to be first and last second.”

“When I tried to start at Inter in Q1, I had no grip compared to the others. The road surface condition was pretty good in Q3, but I wasn’t sure if I should start in Intermediate. So earlier that nothing came out completely wet. “

“The road was dry and I ended up switching to intermediate, which was terrible for us. I didn’t have the front grip which felt great at the end. Intermission today is for us.” Obviously it wasn’t working. “

Still, Max Felstappen says he is looking forward to tomorrow’s race.

“I hope we can do well in tomorrow’s race. Luis Hamilton and Bartelli Bottas are a bit far away so we’ll see what happens. Points will be awarded tomorrow so we can have a good race.” I hope “
