Renault laps a Ferrari? ? ? ? ?

When was the last time a RENAUL lapped a Ferrari? ? ? ?

I assume that the Bridgestones are not in par with the Michellins!

This is something that Bridgestone has already admitted to.

Supposedly, Bridgestone is to come out with new technology and treads on their tires for the Italian GP.

If Ferrari losses the championship this year they should part with Bridgestone altogether. However, I wonder how they will be treated by Michellin?

Ferrari should fight back, as it's not in their philosophy to sit back and get spanked on...

probably 20 years ago when Renault was last a factory entry. From 73 to last year, no such thing as "Renault" BTW-1973 I think Renault won constructor's championship as well.

Yup, Bridgestone was wiping the floor w/ the Michelins. Now the FIA has announced a different tire width measuring procedure which Michelin is completely against. Apparently it has something to do w/ measuring before and after a race and it sounds like the Michelins will not comply w/ the rule as the FIA intends to interpret it. Whatta crock of shit! Right as the title chase is the tightest its been in years and right before Ferrari's home race in a week's time (Monza).
