Although I agree on the fact that pitstops after 7 laps, and drivers needing 4 pitstops per race is a bit over the top, I couldn't help notice that Raikonen was able today to finish on the podium today with 3 pitstops, more or less pushing all the way. That in itself is already pretty impressive, but he managed to do it on the softer tire in 3 of his 4 stints!
Ergo, instead of beating Pirelli, we could also point at most teams not being able to solve a problem, that Lotus apparantly have solved. Maybe they should relocate a few of their engineers from the windtunnel to the suspensiondepartment...
