Red Bull Honda F1 Max Felstappen remembers the final race of the 2020 F1 World Championship Round 14 F1 Turkey GP.
As the signal disappeared and the start was cut off, Max Felstappen on the 2nd grid was unable to accelerate and suffered a significant position down. However, he tried to go back from there and regained the ranking to 4th place to develop the race.
As road conditions improved, the point at the beginning was the time to replace the intermediate tires with shallow grooves. Max Felstappen was fast enough even on wet tires, and when top riders Lance Stroll, Sergio Pérez (both race points) and Sebastian Better (Ferrari) pitted and opened the front, Faste Increase the pace while updating the strap
Felstappen changed tires on lap 11 and returned to the track in fourth place between Pérez and Bettel. Felstappen was showing the fastest pace on the field, but when he tried to pass Pérez in front of him with the goal of second place, he spun and was forced to change tires again. As a result, Felstappen will move behind Albon, Better and Hamilton, returning to the field in eighth position behind Carlos Sainz (McLaren). The pace does not increase because you get caught in this traffic.
After that, there was a pit stop for another car, and Max Felstappen moved up to 3rd position, but due to tire wear, he made a pit stop. He returns to the race in 7th place behind Arbon.

“To be honest, today was a very difficult race,” said Max Felstappen.
“The even row of the grid has a low grip and I couldn’t start well and went down to 4th position. When I got back to 3rd position, I tried to keep up with Czech (Pérez) with difficult control, but the corner came out. I went to the green area off the rim stone and gave a big spin. I tried not to hit the wall, but had to pit because of the flat tire. “
“I was able to switch to a new tire and get to the front, but I couldn’t get through. There was only one race line in the field, and even that line was very slippery. It was very frustrating to be able to run alone on the same line as the machine. Plus , the road surface was not completely dry so I couldn’t replace it with slick tires and had to keep running with a fast wear intermediate. I had to
“The rest was a race to keep up with the car in front, trying to survive without grip. It was not a good day and it was not the race we wanted.”
