FISCracer should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
James, I understand that the process for making CR65s is much more labour intensive than modern tyres and is not an automated process. Given that this is the case and your assertion that the specification is identical how many of the workforce have you transferred from Birmingham to Portugal to ensure continuity and quality control? All, some or none? When can we expect a reduction in price given that the labour costs there are substantially lower?

BTW I am not the only one (apart from Rufi) to have found the new Portuguese CR65 tyres are not as good, whatever you may say about specification.
