    Wrong, there have been problems like this, back when there was in season testing. Just not as bad, because they could test some more and fix it. But not now with the current rules

    okay, the last ten laps were interesting to me, but I am not the usual Bernie-type fan who wants big time excitement

    I think that they've done a good job with the tyre spec for the Nürburgring - for all I care, these tyres could be OK for the whole season. It was a good race with strategic variations and there was no massive tyre degradation - apart from the Mercedes' cars, which were back to their usual useless performance on a hot track.

    Pirelli have changed their tire selection to soft and medium for Hungary. This should bode well for Ferrari and Lotus. Vettel will most likely win however!
    May the forza be with you

    I think I heard yesterday on radio Pirelli will think about their involvement in F1 if it is not run better.

    Couldn't argue with that really. They are being made to look foolish for a variety of reasons (FIA and themselves) and are seemly thinking twice about it.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    At least we'll have a better race.

    True Dex', and the way things stand right now I think Lotus looks very good for this race, as indicators are pointing to very hot conditions.

    Both Kimi and Roman are motivated, and the team seems to be coming together better. I'm going to go out on a limb and say Kimi for the win.

    If I was Hembrey I would have already announced their departure at the end of the current season. They've been made to look like complete fools by the FIA and wasted so much money trying to produce tyres on little to no testing in between GP's. Do Pirelli really need to be in F1? Not really.
