Another Firestone problem.

Remember last year when Mika was leading Imola (I think) and his rear tread just separated from the rest of the tire? Well he was running Bridgestone/Firestone... Enough said :-) -- [email hidden]

Maybe the McClaren owner's manual recommends lower tire pressure.

That's an understatement. When I saw that crash happen, I was afraid we were going to lose another F1 champion... :( Eldred -- Tiger Stadium R.I.P. 1912-1999 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett GPL hcp. +49.67 Never argue with an idiot.

OK but still, there was a tread separation problem :-) -- [email hidden]

Well then, I guess the whole field has to worry about a separation problem since they are all running Bridgestones. Seems like a moot point to me. "Greg Cisko" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:1DGA5.21304$[email hidden]...
