Michelin Problem

well in case you are not watching the F1 grand prix of USA, michelin is making tires that are unsafe for those race conditions.

The starting grid only has 3 teams which use bridgestone tires

all michelin users are not allowed to race

michelin asked for turn 13 of the Indianapolis motor speedway to be slowed down, lol

all the fans are disappointed, im sure they wont be buying michelins

IMHO, what Michelin did to the USGP is inexcusable. How long has Michelin been racing? You mean to tell me with all their resources that they couldn't come up w/ a tire compound to handle the high bank oval into turn 13? I mean, it's not like this is new to them, this what they do, make tires. Such a sad series of events for USGP & F1 fans.
