Can't compare a race track with most roads, unless you drive to work at 300+ kph then slam on your carbon brakes 30m before the traffic lights. Cant compare motogp tyres with moto2 or SBK or nascar for the same reason. Can compare to razors in hotmix, that was quite good.
At 300+ kph slam on a carbon brake and mash a front tyre with a tiny footprint into the road with this in it:
See all those nice sharp edges and points. They stick up out of the road you know. Whats going to happen? Rock is harder than rubber.
Buff those nasty sharp edges nice and smooth first with a nascar or go-cart or rally car or whatever. Its called bedding in the track. Dont make bridgestone buff them up during a motogp race, it causes a lot of marbles and unhappy riders, some of whom refuse to keep racing. It aint rocket science, it aint even rock science. Its common sense.
I do agree Stoner, who won the bloody race after all, had no need to whine on about it. If this is the point people want acknowledged (Jumkie), no problem. If people want to crucify Bridgestone, then boycott Montegi haha.
Its Bridgestone's fault:
When would Bridgestone test the surface as they have done in the past?
Before the race - no good, the surface was slippery and 3 sec off the previous year.
Somewhere in the middle? No good. You want overnight specials?
After the race - no good, thats a bit too late.
Use last years data? No good, new surface.
We know the suggested problems, who has posted the solution for Bridgestone? Should the tyres have been rock hard or super soft or what? Nope, the track should be bed in.
