Bad day for Pirelli

[Lunar]

First rear blows and the techs confirm the tyres are definitely good for the rest of the race and it must be a one off due to debris.
Second rear blows and hmmm, maybe they need to check that

I'm hoping they restart with Michelin's

 

[Fez]

Agree, bad day for tyres...

 

[Hammers]

I don’t think I will be driving anywhere near 200mph so should be okay

And tyres with sidewalls that big will never catch on ...

 

[Philskill]

It certainly didn't look like a puncture on Stroll's car!

They'll be 18" wheels next year...

 

[Quiet man]

I wonder if there's any pirelli's going cheap, do you think I will need spacers on the rear to get them to fit.

Of course this was not half as Bad as the Michelin fiasco of the 2005 USA F1 GP, although of course they avoided anyone actually crashing in a dramatic way!

I did love Verstappen kicking the offending Tyre...

What exactly happened here?

What exactly happened here?

A couple of burst tyres during the Baku Grand Prix. Rather ruined Max Verstappen's race. Well, it ruined Lance Stroll's too, but he wasn't ina position to win!

Pirelli are putting it down to debris cuts in the tyre... Saying other Tyres changed at the Red flag had cuts in. Hamilton's had a 6cm cut but not through to the construction... this maybe because of Strolls crash of course.

But there were no incidents before Strolls Crash to cause his!
