    "Honestly I don't know," he said. "For sure we came here with a clear idea that there was not really a problem. I cannot say if that was the problem, because the real problem is that when we have tyres working outside the working range of conditions, then we are suffering. This is the problem."

    Has Domenicalli been reading Catch-22?

    SO much for the percieved Pirelli favoritism to Ferrari. The hard and medium tires have done them in all year. Monza is not a given for Ferrari at all. Id say Merc or Mclaren if not Red Bull.

    The Ferrari has a fundamental issue heating the harder rear tires. The car is great on softs but terrible on the other. It's very similar to the MB situation where they can set the car up for qualy or race spec, but never both.

    i find it shocking that they can't seem to get more than ten laps out of a set of tires. is it the tires or the set up
