Oh, errr Missus!! That’s the Frankie Howerd moment out the way. The rubber in question is that wrapped around the wheels of Moto GP bike from next year. And it looks like all of it is going to be supplied by Bridgestone. I don’t like this, I didn’t like it in World Superbike and I don’t much care for it in F1. I have no objection to Bridgestone, I run them on my bike but not through choice, it came with Bridgestone and I have never changed front and back together so, as they need to be matched, each new tyre has been Bridgestone. I just don’t like control tyre rules. There isn’t a control wheel, exhaust, engine management system, suspension or brakes, so why tyres? I suspect that team budget is part of the reason but unless it can be shown to have contributed directly to bigger grids, then I don’t see that it will have added anything to the competition and just limited the rate of development.
