I have Late 2015 iMac and after the latest Catalina update, I am no longer able to use F1, F2 and other keys.
Instead, there is option for Touch bar (?!), while I am using the apple magic keyboard.
Is there a way to switch to F1 keys or am I missing it?
Boot into Safe Mode (How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support) by booting with the Shift key held down and check there to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.
NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to 10 minutes as it's doing the following;
• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed
• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party extensions from loading)
• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically
• Disables user-installed fonts
• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files

iMacs do not have Touch Bars.
No longer use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys
