comfort Pirelli tires on the track for them.
"Given the relatively short time owned by Pirelli, I think they have been doing their job pretty well," said Sebastian Vettel who had become the fastest racer in the first practice session, the morning and second fastest in the afternoon.
"This is a good start for them. Indeed, the car still need a little time to adapt to the new tires (Pirelli). For that, we had little to do change the set-up car. Apart from that, I think Pirelli tires is enough to respond adequately. Perhaps, the results they deliver this time beyond what became their expectations, "said world champion F1 2010 as quoted by Autosport, Saturday (11/20/2010).
The same thing also disclosed Rubens Barrichello, who previously used Bridgestone tires, Michelin and Goodyear, and Pirelli tires have not used. He admitted quite impressed with the performance of Pirelli, although he has not fully familiar with the character of the tire.
"I am quite impressed. However, I do not think it is time to make comparisons (with Bridgestone). But, obviously I am quite positive welcome Pirelli. I had 42 laps in the morning session and everything went well, "he continued.
"Pirelli clearly have a different character with Bridgestone. For that, we must learn it. We can not impose a tire with a different character but works the same way. I liked this challenge (to find out the character of Pirelli), "Williams driver cap This
