Wet tyres?
Why are the Bridgestone inters a lot better in the seemingly horrendous conditions in Canada this weekend?
At Brazil, the Michelins were the best in the full wet conditions and when the track started drying the Bridgestone teams sped up. Why is the reverse happening here? |

I don't think the conditions are that horendous actually, at least judging by what's outside the window and forcasts I'm getting here... I think the tires they're using just aren't up to it.

Actually, I take that back it's raining harder now, albeit after quali... That said, I remember being at the Toronto Molson Indy qualis a few years back, and it was raining much harder and they didn't have any problems..and F1 cars are generally better than Cart ones in the rain... That said, neither series machines are designed for water.
