The United States Grand Prix: a Big Shame and Black Sunday

Thanks for posting that letter Don. I had not seen it yet.

Michelin to quit after 2006

Michelin announced on December 14th that it will withdraw from Formula One after the 2006 season. The decision does not come as a big surprise as the French manufacturer has been unhappy with the rules concerning tyres for some time and has also been on uneasy footing with the FIA since the events of the US Grand Prix.

In response to Michelin's announcement the FIA stated: "The competing teams have repeatedly and unanimously requested the FIA to impose a single tyre supplier in Formula One. This has been agreed for 2008, but Michelin's announcement makes it probable for 2007. The teams will certainly be glad of this."

The sport's governing body added that a single tyre supplier would make F1 "fairer, safer and less expensive," and concluded that "above all, it will avoid a repetition of the problem which arose at the 2005 US Grand Prix."
