The idea behind control tyres is that people can use the same tyre through the series as well as be using the same as everyone else, IMHO the BRCA have done absoloutely the correct thing and nominated 2 tyres for the whole series.
The blame for the ridiculous situation with the ballistic tyres has to be layed at the manufacturers doors. I wouldn't beleive that there were essentially 2 compounds of greens going around until I felt them for myself, the hard ones were very noticeabley harder and felt more like the blue compound. Bad shizzle man
Out of interest was Doms stock newish? or could there still have been some of last years batch still mixed in? DOM?
