You can buy older F1 tires/tyres from before the Pirelli era but they are usually tables and chairs now AND they have to be treated because the rubber off-gasses can be toxic and generally horrible in the home.

Well the tyres arent the problem, the actual problem is the spray and thanks to F1 being most focused on safety, they wouldn't want another Belgium 1998 happening.
When i was 8 , 50+ yrs ago, at a reverse direction sprint at knockhill , watching the men at work on a F5000 Lola , i asked how heavy are the rear tyres , they said come and try to lift it , wow , not really any heavier than my dads cortina wheel that we changed the week before . I felt as strong as Superman. đ
It is absolutely comical that F1 has all this talk about being 'carbon neutral' and 'net zero' yet each car is allocated 18 sets of tires with many of them being thrown away if not used. I'm the last person to toot the environmental horn but F1 is living in fantasy land with their PR lie that is net zero. Excellent video and very informative as always. Well done.
I think they dropped the 'net 0 by 2030' goal because I don't see it anywhere. It used to be visible behind the podium finishers during interviews but it's not anymore.
Same with the calendar. The fact that we have Monaco, hop to the other side of the world for Canada, and then back for Spain makes no sense at all if youâre pushing such a message
@@Racemannetje That's because F1 teams have more than one copy of everything. While one shipment goes from Monaco to Spain, another shipment goes from Miami to Canada.

2:58 This part of tires as a set, is crucial to understand that when a driver flat spots a front tire, they essetially screw up an entire set of tires.
I think these tyres are a marvel of engineering. Sometimes you'll see a cut-through visual of a tyre and that's already incredible to see. The various materials used or just even the different mixture of a compound. When was the last time we saw a tyre blow due to tyre wear? These days the puncture comes from a collision with a car or an object on the track. I can appreciate this level of detail, engineering, and care. Thanks for the video :)
Who remembers that race in America i think where the Michelin tyres were failing and they had to tell the teams their tyres weren't safe to race on so only the cars on Bridgestones "raced". What a shamozzel that was.
Fantastic insight into the life of an F1 tyre! Unfortunately, a large proportion of the microplastics in the ocean come from tyres, so its a shame that F1 goes through so many. I wonder if the amount of microplastics would be different for an F1 tyre vs a normal road car tyre (different rubber compound, etc.)?
Tires came from materials in the Earth and eventually return to the Earth. The cycle of life, one of the fundamental laws of the universe, decay of all things, can't be broken. Think, instead of reacting to what you're told to be afraid of in life...
I have a Rear Wet used by Alain Prost at Silverstone in a test. Not saying how I got it but I was there at the test that day and discovered it was in my boot (Trunk) when I got home It was cleaned and treated and is in daily use as a coffe table
I have an old Pirelli supersoft tire with all the barcodes still on it. Does anyone know how I can check which driver used the tire? Unfortunately, emailing Pirelli doesn't work
That raw materiel is VERY proprietary to say the least! It would be extremely careless of Pirelli to just hand their competitors their cutting edge technology as a souvenir. đ
Before they cut tire beads, race car tires could be found. I got mine for free for years from the Parnelli Jones Firestone store in Torrance. Then things got tough with Firestone orders to cut beads. But I made friends with mechanics there and could usually find tires for my old street driven corvette.
I have an unused competition Pirelli medium tyre on a 13inch Enkei front rim from a Mclaren Mp4-26 that I made into a table. I made a base for it and put some 6 inch legs on it, LED lights in the middle of the rim and a glass top. It looks great
No competitor wants to reconstruct Pirelli's awful tires. Michelin and Bridgestone have better racing products that can withstand many fastest laps. đ€·ââïž
I though they were taken back to the plant in Didcot, can't see any information saying that they aren't, where did you hear that they are not taken back there?
It's a big misconception, it's just where the tyres are organised and sent out from - not just for Formula 1 but many other categories. All my info is taken from my meetings with Pirelli, and those who currently work within the paddock!
In the late 1960s in Los Angeles we would go to the back door of Shelby enterprises,,$40 a tire for used road racing slicks, we told them we were using them at Lions drag strip four our street drag cars,,well that's at least what we told them...
They already get enough, and it is part of the strategy. From testing the teams usually know what tyres are needed for what tracks and what conditions. Also, different compounds are used for different races.
Itâd be cool if teams could mix match different tire grades when theyâre racing. Example being hards on the front and mediums on the rear. Itâd make tire selection strategy so super interesting
They should be allowed to Mix/Match any combination for more tactical options or at least tires of the same compound. Now one flat spot from a hard break manouver ruins the entire set. That is hard to understand.
I mean yeah you could look at it as Pirelli protecting their intellectual property. Or you could see it as Pirelli protecting their monopoly on the market.

Itâs dangerous to replace just one and canât patch it, so you need to buy 4 new tires.â *This is a joke, obviously race cars need matched tires. Please donât @ me about how I donât know anything about tires. Just a comment about how commercial tire shops try to boost their own sales.

Itâs been this way for several years. There was a time when, Goodyear and Bridgestone also raced F1. But it got very expensive with the tire companies competing against each other and Goodyear was the first one to leave the sport.

Man you must use alot of sharpies lol
Always be prepared
F1 has been ruined by Pirelli's useless tyres that go off so quickly. Drivers should be racing hard, not managing their tyres.
You are being disingenuous. Pirelli was asked to produce tyres which donât last. They did exactly that.
Do the tyres come out of the teams budgets? If so what happens to the cost of the unused tyres does the money just go to Pirelli back pocket
So 600 tires on a given race week? Wow
I would love to have a used F1 ype.
Interesting video but what the hell is Formmla 1?
Thought tyre warmers were being barred.
All part of F1 zero emissions đ
Zero Emission is a future goal, but they still gotta race in the now donât they?
I'm sorry but no matter how hot you burn the shredded tires you will have CO2 as a minimum unless they are recapturing it.
