although no-one knows if the race is going ahead massive safety issue over the michelin tyres and them failing easy due to the high speed corner.

no-one knows exactly whats happening yet at moment looks like cars will not start, so that leaves ferrari on their own on the grid.

yeah but 9 of the teams have agreed that they will not race unless a chicane is put in before the last corner. Ferrari are the only ones that are against the installation of a chicane i think.

they should just let them go back to the regular tyre change rule just for this race.

they have even said put all bridgestone runners at front of grid, make it a non championship race everything to try and get a race going. 3 drivers, i think thats what they said, have even designed a chicane to be put in to try and help them out but no-one knows whats happening. There are lives at risk out there, its a straight forward decision imo.

they should allow this or do it anyway and get penalised for it after the race. As i understand the rules, you cannot change a tyre unless damaged. Well, they will be damaged after what they think is 10-15 laps. so they would have to pit every 10 laps to be safe and even then it wouldnt be guaranteed safety.
