Does anyone know how the mousse exactly works? I understand it gets activated when it gets hot, but does it get deactivated when it cools down?

no it doesnt deactivated

[Mintexmemory]

No it's an irreversible polymeric reaction - the tyre is full of the sponge afterwards

For sure we are disappointed to lose that much time in SS13 on @ElfynEvans but we have to be fair, he did a stunning job out there and we couldn't resist. Obviously we lost a lot of time in the bumpy section. It's not over yet & we will count the points at the end of the rally. https://t.co/wdstcrwMu1

If I remember correctly, it's activated when air pressure drops. Basically it was sort of solid foam donut which normal tyre pressure kept in check and once that was gone, it expanded to fill in and keep the rubber in shape.

I wonder if Evans will push?

looks like Meeke overheated tyres till the end
Big understeer

[Fast Eddie WRC]

That time will take some beating.

Big understeer at the end there, will have cost a little bit.

bad news for Sordo. Huyndai not going well even here. /Looking into a Loeb/
If I was Suninen - I'll try to push and get Dani
