What's with the white line on Formula1 tyres?  |
| |
|  So this year all cars are running on Bridgestone, which I think sucks big time not only for Michelin but for all non ferrari fans:P... Now, after I got all may anger out, I keep wondering what the hell is that white line on the tyres?

| | Ma cherie amie... I agree perfectly with you... I know it was all teams choice, or that's what I heard too, I supose that was a democratic vote(I might be wrong)... but I sad that was unfair for Michelin, and for non-ferrari fans, i didn't say nothing about teams choice;)... and my opinion is that if indeed there was a all team decision for Bridgestone it was a wrong decision:)... i have a picture with the white line:P... I don-t know how to put it on mylot (look here http://www.formula1.com/gallery/)
Just one book?:( | | | |

| | remember the race with only 6 cars? the ones using bridgestone? because michelin said that they can't assure the dafety of the pilots because the tyres were not good enough... and you expect them to have a long nice life in F1 after something like this???
and don't call Ferrari stupid X(X(X( | | | |

| |  All F1 cars have to use 2 different compounds in each race this season. The white line is drawn on the softer compound tyre. Hope this helps.

| | found out :)
the pilots have to (acording to the new rules) use 2 different types of tyres during 1 race: soft and very soft. the white line is on the very soft ones :) so they could make a difference i guess.
cheers to my dad who inlightened me :D:D | | | | | | |

| |  For this year the governing body, the FIA, decided that all the teams must use a soft compound tyre and a hard compound tyre during the races. This was supposed to make it more exciting to watch since cars would perform better on one compound than another and so there might be a varying speed differential between the cars.
To make it easy for the officials and the fans to see which compound a car is on at any time, it was decided to paint one of the tyre grooves on the soft tyres white. Unfortunately, the desired effect has not happened since almost all the teams use the compounds in the same way (usually hards to begin with and softs in the last stint) and the cars tend to perform pretty much as they always did.
