That was a very tough race. The timing of the safety car period worked to our advantage early on and we were in good shape. We were quick in the conditions, everything was going well and the strategy was well defined. Then we just decided to go onto dry tyres too early. It was a very close decision, but we took it together and we got it wrong. Ralf Schumacher

![[Ralf Schumacher had a dramatic start to his Turkish Grand Prix when he was pushed off the circuit at the first corner. But he still managed to claw his way through the field to an eventual 12th place.] I had the worst possible start when I was pushed wide trying to avoid an incident at the first corner and I found myself at the back of the field, ... So I basically lost it all then. Then I ran over Massa's front wing as I rejoined the track, so this was always going to be a tough struggle for me. Luckily my car was okay and I kept pushing all the way to the flag. Towards the end I was chasing Villeneuve but there was no way past. All in all an unlucky day, which is a pity for the team because the pace was there and we could easily have scored points today. - Ralf Schumacher Quotes](/pic/img/img.php?text=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&author=ICBSYWxmIFNjaHVtYWNoZXIgICAg&num=3 "[Ralf Schumacher had a dramatic start to his Turkish Grand Prix when he was pushed off the circuit at the first corner.
