Great race!
**** Pirelli... Man I hate that tire company.
Mercedes is so much better since their private test. FIA ****ed up hard by not punishing them.

Pirelli called to appear before F1's Sporting Committee after tyre failures in British GP | Mercedes GP Petronas F1 News | Formula 1 Teams | Sky Sports
I am left amused with all the blame of this sorry mess being laid at Pirelli. It was Bernie Eccleston and the FIA who asked Pirelli to produce these cheap quality tyres in order to "spice up the show"; and as it is all turning ugly they are nowhere to be seen

Oh I hate them too... But pirelli just doesn't do race tires well. They failed Subaru hard in the 2000s in WRC when Michelins were just too good.
It's QQ thankyouverymuch
