Fifth fastest in qualifying, then put back to 15th for an engine change penalty, Ralf Schumacher ended seventh in the Turkish Grand Prix.

Schumacher earned two points and is 10th in the season's standings with 18.

``It was always going to be hard work, starting so far back on the grid,'' Schumacher said. His relative success on Sunday came despite a small accident which cost valuable seconds.

``It was chaotic and unfortunately I lost my front wing. I lost time when I pitted to replace it but at least we were able to fill up with fuel, so we would need only one more stop,'' he said.
