Conrats to VR, good race, MM needs some more experience underneath his belt. This is the second race he lost big time due to his immaturity. The first one was in the rain when he decided not to switch bikes and crashed and this race he was pushing those tire too much when he had a large enough lead and crashed. MM and Cal was pushing their tires way too hard for the final laps with almost no tire left. The two veterens VR and Jlo knows the limits.
the asymmetrical b-stones are a thin line and ended up to be not the right tire at the end of the race. the 7 degree temp drop and possibly wind chill in the popular crash zone are a good sign.
if you push too hard, you crash.
if you don't push enough, the tire gets too cold and you crash.
if that band gets too narrow, you're .... outta luck.
