minus-square💡dim@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 years 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-squareCoelacanthlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 years agoWe’ll see, the C1 is a new tire this year. It’s possible most teams underestimated it.
minus-squareSatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 years agoTIL. I really need to pay more attention to things like this.
minus-squareCoelacanthlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 years agoThe garbage tire from Silverstone last year is called C0 this year.
minus-squareSatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 years agoWait I didn’t know C0 was a thing. (Unless this means they just binned it, and I’m missing the joke.)
minus-squareCoelacanthlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years 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-squareSatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 years agoHuh. Thank you for the explanation!
minus-squareimbrucy@lemmy.onelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 years 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.
