It's something that I forgot to mention when I was trying to explain how difficult it would be to predict the longevity of the skins .

So as I see it , you and I are 4 laps of missed prediction away from both seeing Pirelli as doing the job .
You'd be happy if they had predicted 36 , and I can't imagine even having to try and figure it all out , let alone getting within 4 laps , with so many variables .
Agreed, and the decision to use softer tyres this weekend just highlight the fact that Pirelli are all of the place with their operation at the moment. After the punctures last weekend, l would have thought they would have taken a cautious path this weekend and stick with the harder tyres but with lower maximum laps threshold.
