Honestly there haven't been really any significant tire failures all year with pirelli, so for everyone to jump to conclusions so early after the silverstone race was stupid. I was thinking the track had something to do with it. I just don't see why if the tires last just fine in monaco, canada, etc. they would be absolutely garbage at silverstone...there have to be other factors involved

Man... you are making is hard to hate on Pirelli!
Actually i think it's more how quickly the tires degrade that makes most folks sour on Pirelli.
