Tyre disparity to be reduce by Bridgestone.

[Bagwan]

Yahoo!eurosport is reporting that Bridgestone will bring the compounds closer together , saying the cars are using the tires differently to what was expected .

"Hungary is a circuit where the characteristics demand our softest tyres," he explained. "This is also true for street courses, and we used the softest allocation earlier in the year at Monaco, and will again in Valencia.

"In Spa the weather temperatures can be quite cool, so the hard compound could have caused difficulties, and the super soft would have been too soft for this track, so that means the allocation of medium and soft is obvious.

"In Monza the hard compound would have given too big a difference between it and the soft, so we will bring the soft and the medium."

Finally some common sense decision.

I don't know if anyone else agrees, but I hate those super-soft tires. Are they made out of papier-machie? Just fall apart after about 5 laps! Anyway, I bet the teams' would all love to have a consistent tires choice throughout a grand prix.
