So Pirelli didnt liked being told they are shit? hehe
I know tire war dont belong in "WORLD" championships anymore but that was always something really fun to have in motorsport. Its more things to talk about, u'know? ERC is still my favorite so far. Rally2, Tire War, a good calendar, tons of entries!

Been a pretty horrid time for Pirelli I'd say. The state of punctures was too much at points. I wonder if they knew they wouldn't win the tender anyway, with Michelin in the bidding to return?

last decades its the same game.Some years pirelli,some years michelin.
if you allow both the game is expensive.
And imho i dont like to have another unknown reason(tyres) to see if the yaris is faster from i20 due to tyres or driver or the car.

Who would have jumped in to replace CD on such a short notice anyway? Leaving such decisions so late smells of incompetence.
