and I agree s**t does happen and that is motor racing I've seen it happen all the time from GT to F1 to WRC.

Quote:Second, of all the whole rule about running the entire weekend on one set of tires is complete bullshit for a safety concern.

Agreed one of the dumbest rules that the FIA has ever agreed to, the least they could do is bring back slick tires not that by the end of the race the grooved tires are practically slicks anyways.

Also of note on tire safety and Michelin they received a letter from the FIA after Kimi's accident in Spain not to sacrifice safety for performance in the spec of there tires.
