The upcoming F1 decision that could have a massive impact on racing

For many F1 fans, tyres are a boring necessity - essential to the sport, but dull to talk about. On this episode of the pod (which we promise is far from dull), Edd Straw is joined by Scott Mitchell-Malm and Glenn Freeman to explain why, with Bridgestone interested in returning to F1 in place of Pirelli, fans should be very interested in what tyres the cars are running in the future. They also debate whether F1 would benefit from another ‘tyre war’, where rival tyre manufacturers would vie for supremacy rather than every team using the same rubber.
