I could see some major problems with the Pirellis this season but on the other hand, if they really do degrade this badly, it certainly could make the racing more exciting. The issue of marbles or "super marbles" being flung at the spectators sounds a little dangerous but I'd love to catch a piece in Montreal!

Darren, that is an amazing display!! Thanks for sharing.

Tire degradation could help even out the field.

It will hurt the fastest cars the worst.

All part of Bernie's evil plan.

I think this will favor the drivers that are smooth, or who can adapt to making smooth transitions. In other words: Button.

It should be interesting to see if this does indeed level the playing field a bit more.
