F1 introduces emergency safety measures for Qatar GP amid tyre failure concerns
Formula 1 is to hold an extra practice session ahead of the sprint action at the Qatar Grand Prix, and could mandate a three-stop race, following concerns about tyre failures.

The usual process involves cutting up sample tyres for a more detailed look. Usually, nothing untoward is discovered, but on this occasion, late in the evening, Pirelli found issues with multiple tyres that had run 20 laps or more.

The FIA was immediately alerted, and single-seater director Nikolas Tombazis was shown the damaged tyres and a plan formulated on how to respond.

Today's statement from the governing body noted that "a separation in the sidewall between the topping compound and the carcass cords on many of tyres that were checked was discovered.

"It is the view of the FIA and Pirelli that a significant number of additional laps on these tyres could result in circumferential damage of the tyres with subsequent air loss, and tyres analysed with lower lap numbers showed a much-reduced extent of the issue."

My Tivo does not list it anywhere.

Total confusion in the US. Liberty cannot possibly like this. I hope they come down hard on whoever created this BS mess.

If you get the F1 app you don't have to put up with the breathless Crofty but you do have to put up with Will Buxton doing the grid walk. If anything it's an interesting contrast between the SkySport crew.

 

Tense moments today as for Max to win the title he needs Perez to finish off the podium.

 

Here we go with the Sprint.

 

I see possibly that will happen. I dont see Perez near the podium today.

 

Russell and Ferrari's on soft.

That won't last the race surely.

 

should be an interesting race, especially for those on softs
