Racing Point’s disappointing season is not “surprising” to team boss Otmar Szafnauer given the “turmoil” the team was in while its 2019 Formula 1 car was being created.
Szafnauer, whose team was sixth in the constructors’ championship but fell back behind Toro Rosso following Pierre Gasly’s Brazilian Grand Prix podium, said: “It’s not what we wanted.
“However, having looked back at what happened the year before this, when this year’s car was in development, we were in a bit of turmoil, especially financially, so it’s not surprising.”
