Though comparing F1 cars to road cars are like apples and oranges...F1 cars go to either extremes, slicks, or the intermediates/wets (which are much more efficient at displacing water than our road car tyre)...as we don't have pitcrews to change our tyres at will! 1 tyre to last almost 50000 km, it's an entirely different compromise.And aquaplaning can take place even if you're going at 50km/h....I've seen a huge tanker in front of me with the load actually sliding around behind (like a dog wagging its tail) because of worn tyres. Extremely dangerous. It's no joke driving in the wet, especially in Msian weather if you know your tyres are almost bald it's smarter to just park the car and wait.</blockquote>
