British GP 2013 - Major talking points

The Tyre controversy surfaces again

We will be talking about this race for a long time and the tyre controversy won’t fade away easily.

Sergio Perez, Lewis Hamilton, Jean-Eric Vergne and Felipe Massa were amongst those who suffered major problems with their tyres today.

Nobody seems to know what has caused all these problems. Some of them are blaming the kerbs that might have affected the left-rear tyre of all these cars. Pirelli, the tyre manufacturer however had no immediate response to the issue stating “We’ve seen something new, a different type of problem.”

Even if Pirelli are not the culprits here, their name has surely been tarnished.
