Well Sauber has defected to Michelin tyres!
Now only Ferrari, Jordan and Minardi are with Bridgestone!
Does this remind you of the WRC at all?
Subaru is the only manufacture on pirelli tyres while the rest are on Michelin.
Also, Kumho want in on F1 in the tyre war, according to Minardi and Jordan etc they (kumho) are going to be offering much cheaper tyres to the back teams to get some race experiences.
Ofcourse Bernie has to let this pass!
Makes you think, Sauber signed that agreement that Ferrari didn't and no joining Michelin? Questions might be asked.
That or Sauber will tell Ferrari everything about the Michelin's!
