slicktoast should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
2007 rim size? Slicks?

Aren't the rim diameters supposed to increase for 2007? If so, then everyone starts on the same page as far as tire compound and construction is concerned. Aren't they on slicks t ? I hope we don't have to wait until 2008 for this.

2008 is slicks as thats the actual control tyre. 2007 is simply a single supplier. AFAIK the physical dimensions were staying the same.

According to Bridgestone,construction and compounds will be very different to what has been used previously for the 2007 season.They'll still have grooves and be of the same dimensions as this season.The tech regs for the 2007 season have yet to be published,but i'm not expecting any major revisions.

Yeah, exactly, why bother changing back to slicks in 1999 when we can do it 10 years later...
