Tried all that even to extremes before the air temp was raised and it topped out about 62. Now its fine with realistic pressures.

Question to modern racers - what is the real optimum temperature of a wet Tyre . Pressure too. I know some favour increased pressure to 'sharpen' the leading edges but interesting to know if GPB optimums are close.

Tomorrow's race will be dependant on the main servers being rebuilt - watch out for news

wet.. front 34 cold..29 hot
         rear 28 cold.. 29 hot

debatable in the wet.. some people use tyre warmers some dont.. personally i dont. pressures i prefer 32 front 32 rear.

dry.. front 29/32 cold.. 30/35 hot
        rear 23/26 cold.. 25/28 hot

Absolutely no idea about temp's..

Thanks. Not sure I understand that front wet hot pressure as it doesn't follow the 'trend' - why is that?

its a good question! don't have an answer.. lol. all book figures from pirelli.

i dont use warmers in the wet.. because.. its wet! lol, very soft compound anyway.. you dont want lean angle..(maybe front doesn't generate enough heat with no lean angle) 1 tooth higher gearing (more acceleration) to compensate lower corner speed.

Yes with the potential rain at Indianapolis too and possibility of running late we might have to scrub this event today. Lets see if we get any more news in the next couple of hours....
