Pirelli – Are they really to blame? - Understanding 2013's Tyres

The Spanish GP held at the Circuit de
Catalunya has for years been a forgone conclusion, rock up on a
Saturday, duke it out for pole position and you're guaranteed to take
victory on the Sunday. This year that changed and for the first time
in years I didn't find myself drifting off in front of the box a
third of the way through the race. You will all know I am both a fan
of strategy and a defender of Pirelli but perhaps what isn't clear is
why the GP became a four stopper. I would also like to say that
although Social Media has led to my own rapid rise it may also be the
reason why we are seeing Pirelli take the brunt of the criticism this
year. If I may borrow a line from the film Inception:
'An idea is like a virus. Resilient.
Highly contagious. And even the smallest seed of an idea can grow. It
can grow to define or destroy you.'
