Did the driver request another pitstop to change the tyre?
Mistakes happen. Heaven help this bloke when he next crashes a car..

How many mistakes has Richy had to endure in his short time with the team?
Doesn't sound like its the first error made that has affected him.
Treating the machinery poorly is not the best way to make your point, but the language and attitude is what I assumed was the focus here and I think he was right to give a serve over the radio.
The explanation he got was not quite how Tim explained it on air either.
'We put the wrong tyre on' is not the same as 'We made up the best set we could'.....who wouldn't be annoyed?
Another pitstop was never a reasonable option with only a few laps to go.
I'm feeling for the guy.
I think he is going to do something good in this series and I would prefer it if he did it with this team. Tickford need to lift, a lot, and quickly.
