Soldato
Maybe for a short while, but do you seriously think Merc wouldn't adapt? Might take a couple of races but they would find their way back on top.It's a bit of a shame that if Pirelli bring. Softer and softer tyres they can pull the championship away from merc.
Imagine how different the championship could look if Pirelli just changed thier tyre choice to soft from the start
Yesterdays race was an anomaly, extremely high degradation, very high temps, higher tyre pressures on softer rubber, on a track that was destroying harder tyres the week before. I would not expect the same to occur regularly elsewhere, maybe the odd round if the perfect storm happens again. Might make the odd race a bit less predictable.
On the whole I doubt softer tyre choices would cause a fundamental shift in the current situation.
