F1 » Vettel: Tyre criticism purely a matter of safety


Elijah. read your first comment again! you are saying that red bull cannot cope with the change in characteristics and that seb is being disingenuous when he is pointing out that it is a safety issue. now you are saying the opposite. red bull are coping very well, but just because they have not had a deamination, that is no reason why they should not be concerned. for ANY car to have a sudden delamination, it is just not acceptable. rbr might not suffer, but what if another car in front suffers? does seb want to be hit by a tread, or a spinning car? I doubt it.

F1 » Vettel: Tyre criticism purely a matter of safety


Elijah. and you think that Pirelli are happy to see delaminations as ot a safety issue? imagine driving at 200mph and have a tyre throw a tread? how are you going to make the next corner or even brake, with an exposed steel band on your remaining carcase?. the tyres for this year were constructed to run with the steel bracing, and bonding of tread to carcase was problematic. Pirelli want to go back to the Kevlar banding as their bonding to that was ok. I guess that if they get the bonding to the steel perfected , then there would be no problem. montreal showed that the steel braced tyre can be ok, if properly bonded

F1 » Tragedy mars Canadian Grand Prix


pcx. I don't think that this is the time or place for trying to attribute blame. marshals are not hired, they are normally voluntary workers who are doing it for the love of the sport and to help protect the drivers. it was an unfortunate accident. sad to see that you have not expressed even the slightest sympathy with the family.

F1 » Hamilton: The car felt fantastic today


Zelda. the dd certainly could not have crossed the atlantic! it couldn't make it from the lct to shore! I see you looked up lancia, and as I pointerd out, it was only ONE particular model that had problems. you seemed to dismiss the lot of them! Hillman imp? pneumatic throttle?grotesque positive camber at front? surprised that you are sill around! re cf. any idea what the shelf life is? will we see 787s dropping out of the skies in 10-15 years? are any of the f1 teams using forged cf yet, lambo use it on their latest car
