It looks like this year the tire thing is a relevant factor, dominating the cars performance. Nurburgring was a Michelin track. Anybody has a guess of how performance will be in the remaining GPs? Think about this.. for a better tire war, wouldn't it be better if both bring their tires, eand every team chooses the ones that fit better to them? No supplier would want to be 'not chosen' and tyre would be closer in performance. On the other side, cars shoudl have more 'neutral' suspensions to be able to adapt to both tires., and more practice time should be needed... |
and cooler weather the Bridgestones, with water providing
no advantage for either.
If it's a hot summer, expect Williams and McLaren to pull
up and overtake. But if October is cooler than normal
(and it *is* an La Nina year, which means a cooler year
in the US) then Indianapolis and Suzuka may let Fear-rari
catch up and overtake at the end.
Regardless, it hasn't (and seemingly won't be) a boring year.

No.. because then Ferrari would win, and we can't have that, can we?! ;-0 |
