The grandstands during Free Practice and Qualifying is pretty embarrassing in Korea. I blame Vettel.

really cool. you can see how permanent/damaging a lockup is on one part of the tire seeing the bright yellow spin around like that.

I wonder if the vibration in my Subaru is my flat spots over the last few years from autox.

Doesn't happen on the 16" normal tires. Just my 18" race street tires.

Guess I'll find out when I get new tires I'm Feb.

Be careful, if it's a Pirelli the tire can blowup if you flat spot it.

I hope Vettel finishes first and Alonso DNF at Suzuka.

Jeez....but.....you know how some people on here have all the bad luck and keep breaking their cars even though it's 'not their fault'?....maybe Webber is the same way.

It's hard to imagine them sabotaging their own car but crazier stuff has happened

Why not? They have the constructor's locked up pretty well. But then Mark never really had good luck. Hope he doesn't go airborne again at Le Mans.
