Java, or JR. My overly simplistic reply (as you put it) was simply a statement of fact. Pirelli will have explaining to do.
You were and are trying to explain to me about F1 and curbs and backsides, and steel belts vs. Kevlar belts, etc.
This info is not new to me. I am aware of the (disputed) illegal tire testing done by Brawn's team in an older car, in order to gain data supposedly for tire safety. I am aware of the changes in tire construction.
However, what you don't seem to be understanding is that my statement is that Pirelli will have explaining to do to the FIA on Wednesday as to how THEIR tire design became so vulnerable to normal curbing maneuvers. The facts appear to show that this year's tire is particularly vulnerable to damage on the inboard side of the tire due to curbing (yes, I AM aware that there can be edges on the insides of curbs that can damage a tire, but this issue has only popped up this year with this tire at this track, and it happened with the best drivers in the world driving).
