Every driver in F1 complains about them. Every team struggles to make them work. In karting, they were our trusty rubber friends. You’d drive out of the pits and boom, you had tyre grip straight away. In a Formula One car, it’s different. Sometimes you just can’t get them working at all. And by ‘working’ I don’t mean rolling along the ground, I mean getting the right temperature in them, because a cold tyre is a hard tyre; a warm tyre is soft and grippy.
