The thing though, it has happened TOO MANY times. Even for this weekend.

It depends what's causing it.

Hamiltons engineer has told him it's from running over the kerbs and the tyre temperature.

Wasn't Perez's tyre failure from him running too far over the kerbs and catching the back of the kerb?

NO, STAY ON THE KERBS, PLEASE FOR THE BRITISH :rolleyes:
I'm British.
I wasn't questioning that, I was just saying so that the British fans can have something to be happy about instead of Vettel winning.

It's the INSIDE shoulder. Didn't know you had such high regards for Hamilton and his engineers.

Being told to raise the PSI is not a Kerb issue.

I know it's the inside shoulder. Look at the on-board footage and they all run over teh kerbs onto the astro-turf behind in some corners.

It's not a question of regard for someone, it's a question of listening to someone in the know.
