The Artist..... the article seems to suggest they are are very near to getting the agreement they need from all eleven teams, and it they do that then there won't be an issue....
It seems to me that the reporter for Sky has mashed up two quite separate conversations. The extent of the change to the tyre on safety grounds doesn't necessarily demand the agreement of the teams. Otherwise the previous proposed changes would never have been entertained in the first place. It was intervention by the FIA that scuppered the performance changes not discord amongst the teams. Though as sure as eggs are eggs one of the teams flagged the problem with the rules being broken to the FIA.This seems to smack of the changes Pirelli wanting to make to the tyres are going ahead for Canada and not just on the safety issue. because if it were just on safety they wouldn't be seeking the agreement from all 11 teams.

When walking round circuits after races last year it was quite plain to see that the "marbles" were larger than in the Bridgestone days. However, it still seems to me that carbon fibre being very sharp is more likely to cut tyres than the marbles are.
