That's not how tyres work, not at all.Quote:

Try it with a bicycle and take a bumpy corner with different tyres.
Spiked ice tyres must be different.Quote:

Sesks is still moving to start SS4.
Not in the way you are thinking. The car and therefore the four tyres are pressed into the ground by gravitational force, if that force is applied to a soft object (low tyre pressure) or hard object (high tyre pressure) doesn't change the force with which the spikes are pressed into the surface. Of course this is a static thought experiment only and dynamically (movement through corners) things are different.Quote:

Glad for Sesks he got through.
Milner confirmed in the interview that they had low pressure, which worked fine during tests... and now they would 'rethink'...
