Anyone else watching the USA F1 Gran Prix?

Michellin's gotta take the heat. It's their job as a tire company to produce a tire that is up to standard, and they failed.

Putting a chicane in wasn't going to do a lot. It slowed the pace on one section of track and wouldn't reduce wear and tear on the tires enough, which is why Ferrari and the FIA objected apparantly.

Have watched F1 all my life and it was very sad to see.
