So , if Pirelli was mandating that pressures being run stayed above a certain number , but found that the pressures were dropping below that limit on the grid , does it not make sense that they up the starting pressure ?
After all , the most dangerous moments in any GP are at the start , so how could it be wrong to make sure the safest conditions exist at that point , in regard to the tires ?
Upping the pressure by 2 psi will ensure they stay in mandated operating temperatures for the whole race .
This particular loophole is now closed , and it remains to be seen how soon they will work out how to get around this issue , as it looks to me like more than just the lack of being able to let that engine stretch it's legs that's making them slow here .
Both Lewis and Nico had big trouble getting the skins working , and so , I think you're right that the pressure is getting to them .
I just don't see it as a bad thing .

I was just saying it was the possible way to have more cars and more competition at the top level in an ideal world and if it had been planned well in advance. Sadly it wasnt and now they stuck...
