The F1 Thread 2013 Season

Leg-End said:
They changed the tyre construction for this year and the tyres have been failing at pretty much every race. They tried to change but certain teams blocked it, they now bring harder compounds but today its just the same.

I wonder if someone has to be hurt for them to do the right thing, its ridiculous.

Another one, complete joke.
 
That tyre has just exploded on the straight!
 
They have to red flag this. Someone's going to be seriously hurt.

Absolutely pathetic by Pirelli. Pathetic.
 
Seriously this race is under threat now, they can't just keep going around hoping the tyres hold on.
 
Red flag the race, they need to stop it and see if someone can assess what the hell is going on with the tyres.
 
We are gonna end up with Pirelli paying for everyones ticket at this rate.

Why is the safety car out, are they admitting that there is a problem with the track, if they though it was the tyre's would they not just stop the race.

Tyre debris I would imagine but you can bet your ass they are using this time to decide what to do about the situation.

Debris from vergne's tyre I think.
 
Well so in the end the race winner would be decided by whose car managed to have not their tyre explode?
 
Hamilton is up to 14th, watch a majestic drive back to the front only for his tyre to explode with a lap to go.
 
I wouldn't want to be the marshals at the track, Even at such low speeds, the tyre could just burst into smithereens.
 
Pirelli's done excellent jobs with tyres, they just have small problem, and that's that you can't use them in the race, everything else is great.
