What the fuck is that tire doing?!

Ahh, Max Verstappen.... Gotta love that kid. That’s some serious sidewall flex. Did it puncture from impacting the diffuser?

But seriously the tyre is an active component of the suspension system

Flexing. That’s why they’re wary of switching to 18" wheels. They’d have to replace the wheel flex with increased suspension travel and that changes alot with regards to chassis design.

But they looks so good though.

The red/white rumble strip is bumpy, and as the tire hits each bump it gains/loses traction and flexes in the direction of travel (sideways, at the moment)

Oh, I agree. Also relevant to road car design, so that’s why Michelin want them and to make an F1 return.

Dynamic rear toe control under loading?
Or maybe just a dubstep tire.

They showed the P1 highlights (during the P2 broadcast) but amazingly this wasn’t in them. A lot of runoffs though...Max broke off a wing, and someone snapped a suspension on the curbing.
Watching P2 delayed.....lots o’ rain.

Both Max iirc.
