I think it is clear that it was an issue and I just cannot understand why Michelin seem as keen to steer clear of the issue as Bridgestone?????? Mad!
We need this question to the Bridgestone rep - "Did you get any data from Firestone that helped with the tyre design parameters for this years IMS race?"
Or... you could just drop the issue like everyone else and move on to France.
Or, I could just talk about what's topical instead of flooding the forum with irrelevent posts.
