And how can Pirelli control/police how the teams use their rubber. Some teams subject their tyres to different heat cycles to others, some send out the cars for a lap or two to scrub the new ones in before putting them back into the tyre heaters. And so on.
As has been found out in the past, the teams cannot even be trusted to only use the Pirelli instructions on maximum camber, which can also have a detrimental effect on the tyres.
