Erm in a way I can understand on "safety grounds" but this should of been discussed earlier as a group as a what if moment... But they didn't so... That's their problem now lol Andrew benson now saying Jean Todt talking to whiting about something... EDIT: Told you it was hype from Benson trying to hype up the British crowd, now he's saying McLaren started to take Lewis tyres off and had to put them back on lol.
The teams request for new tyres has been denied. Drivers will have to start on the tyres the qualified on.
Massa is in a great position but I don't think Ferrari are fast enough to win, not without luck anyway.
I don't think those with blistered tyres can be written off for the win, it's as you say, Benson whipping up a storm in a teacup, I think. If the Ferraris are hindered by cold temps, that will affect them throughout the race but the tyres can be changed in seconds.
the Merc has had tyre troubles all season, can't see it going away here. looking forward to seeing senna racing instead of driving around. And we also see the problems of qualifying, all the top 10 have been basically penalised for doing well in qualifying, and that's not right.
if senna gets his strategy right, and maybe with some weather luck, could he nick the win based on his practice and qualifying performance? and are people forgetting jaime algesuari, 5th on the grid, or do they not have enough pace.
Jaime said his grid position flattered the car but I'm a fan and I'm hoping for a special race for him and Bruno.
