Drivers pile criticism on tire manufacture for Wet tires that simply aren't up to the task on race day.
The recent F1 Japanese Grand Prix was the latest Formula 1 race to be red-flagged and have its start delayed because of rain.
Tire manufacturer Pirelli says teams not making the best use of practice time in wet conditions is at least partially to blame. Sebastian Vettel says there’s a problem when the Wet tires are not the best tires in rain on a Formula 1 circuit."We are forced to go on the intermediates because the rain tires are junk—sorry, not so good. So we push ourselves from one emergency to another. The whole field was driving on the wrong tires," the four-time world champion added.
