Inside Line F1 Podcast: The case of the right rear Pirelli tyre
Kunal Shah and Mithila Mehta are back for another episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, looking at the Belgian Grand Prix.
Pirelli’s ‘right rear’ tyre shared the limelight along with Lewis Hamilton at the 2015 Belgian Grand Prix say Kunal and Mithila in their latest episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast.
They also talk about Romain Grosjean’s Belgian homecoming, Kimi Raikkonen’s new lease of life, Williams’ desire to not win and the yet to conclude Ferrari-Pirelli saga.
Topics discussed in the podcast:
- The eerie coincidence of the Pirelli right rear tyre.
- How Hamilton and Nico Rosberg robbed us of an episode title.
- Honda finally matching Ferrari as Renault matched Mercedes – we had parity for the first time!
- How Williams will test their new tyre mechanics BEFORE hiring. And how they tested FOM too.
- Congratulations to Grosjean and Lotus - we hope their cars reach Monza.
- ‘Driver of the Day’ in Spa (Pastor Maldonado it to the list too!)
- Their view on the Ferrari-Pirelli tyre saga.
Note: This podcast was recorded before the untimely death of Justin Wilson. In the podcast, Kunal and Mithila pray for Wilson's speedy recovery before the news of Wilson's death was made public and so there was no intention whatsoever to hurt the sentiments of Wilson and his family.
Kunal said: "I'm a bit moved that a few hours after we recorded this episode offering prayers for Justin [Wilson], the news of his death was made public. My prayers are with his family and I am sure that the FIA will push the boundaries of safety further."
Season 2015, Episode 28:
Kunal Shah is a former racer who works in the sports business industry. He pens his view on Formula 1 on his personal blog: kunalsf1blog.
