minus-square💡dimlinkfedilinkEnglish9•1 year agoI just don’t understand why McLaren put Norris and Piastri on hard tyres. Even split strategies surely after seeing how long George lasted on softs
minus-squareCoelacanthlinkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year agoWe’ll see, the C1 is a new tire this year. It’s possible most teams underestimated it.
minus-square@SatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoTIL. I really need to pay more attention to things like this.
minus-squareCoelacanthlinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoThe garbage tire from Silverstone last year is called C0 this year.
minus-square@SatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoWait I didn’t know C0 was a thing. (Unless this means they just binned it, and I’m missing the joke.)
minus-squareCoelacanthlinkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year agoNo they’re still technically available though I doubt Pirelli are actually going to bring them out on any circuit this season. We have six compounds this year, C0-C5.
minus-square@SatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoHuh. Thank you for the explanation!
minus-square@imbrucylinkEnglish2•1 year agoI get the hards for Piastri, but soft was the obvious call for Lando. Just strange that they would give him such a disadvantage on the restart.
