It didn't go well for Red Bull Racing in Turkey. Max Verstappen and Alexander Albon finished sixth and seventh respectively, despite both seeming to have a chance at victory. Despite the disappointing result, Albon felt it was a good weekend.
Albon positive about Turkish GP
Albon spun just like his teammate, so he had to make an extra pit stop and lost a lot of pace. The most sour thing about the spin was that the Thai-Brit was on course to grab a lot of points. In a Red Bull statement, the team called Albon's race one of his strongest weekends.
Albon agreed: "It was a good weekend for me and we tried a few things on my car which made it more predictable. As a team we were also very strong. Looking at how well we started and with what we left in the end is a bit frustrating. There are plenty of positive things to take away from Turkey, though."
Albon enjoyed weather conditions
The reason why Turkey's race was so challenging was the wet track and the new surface, Albon enjoyed it nonetheless.
"It was a bit different than we normally experience, but it was very difficult and easy to make a mistake. You have to adapt to the situation, find the limit and experiment with different race lines. Then the times will come your way. It was a lot of fun."
