Pirelli

I think Pirelli have done exactly as they were asked to do. We can't fault them for making the tires the powers that be wanted, and the change in tire life has made strategy a much more important aspect of the racing.

I think they should at least close the gap in performance between the two compounds used at a race. With so much time per lap between them, a driver can get a lucky break in track gaps and get on the right tires at the right time.

WTF is wrong with these Pirelli d!ckheads?

Pirelli wants qualifying rule tweak to stop teams not running to save tyres - F1 news - AUTOSPORT.com

Now they are pushing for Qualy rule changes instead of finally making real F1 tires. :down:
Is the crappy quality of their tires finally biting back when people see that drivers chose no to run in qualy on order to have enough tires to finish the race?! It was about time they got what they deserve for their under par products.

And WTH is wrong with F1 if any stupid newcomer who can't get their sh!t together can propose rule changes that suit their own agenda?! :down: :down:

I may be wrong (its been known to happen) but do the teams not have two less sets of tyres for races this year? If that is the case, you really can't blame the drivers on the fringes of the top ten to try something a bit radical and not run in q3, and Pirelli just seem to be trying to close that loophole.

I don't see the problem. You are always banging on about the same rules for all Ioan, this just seems to ensure that level playing field, no?

The same rules for all allows anyonenot to run in Qualifying if they don't want it.
What use to do a Q3 run if you know that you are slowest anyway?
Why shoul someone do a run if they don't need it? Just to massage Pirelli's crippled ego. Or is it that they make rules just for the sake of making rules?
F them. :down:

Remember the start of 2009 when B'stones had a two step change between compounds but Vettel stupidly crashed into Kubica in Australia and then people complained how dangerous it was.

But then last year B'stones were too good and there was moaning.

Can't please everyone.

Still what we see now in Q3 is due to Pirelli's crap product, so they should shut the f up and make some real racing tires instead of trying to change the rules to suit their crap.
How the heck did F1 even go as low as accepting these idiots to provide tires for the whole F1 grid is mind-boggling.
