      I imagine that if they win the tender nothing much will change other than the logo.

      I wonder if it would be more interesting to dispose of the monopoly and grades and simply keep the requirements of having tyre changes - perhaps two changes required for some tracks?

      It would probably also require banning exclusive contracts with certain teams, like they had back in the day.

      I think pirelli is getting the short end of the stick, with everyone complaining on the degrading tyres that are literally designed to be bad.

      I would like to see them getting to make the best tyres they can muster. Then any critisism would be fair and warranted.

      I dont think a tyre competition would work in this era.

      On a side note, thanks for making this mikeyd, it was much needed. Can it be pinned at the top?

      Seems like Pirelli isn’t able to deliver precisely what’s asked and have been making “as close as they can” tires, so sure let’s give Bridgestone a shot.
