You have never heard of Hankook Tyres? Pretty major brand, currently the Tyre Supplier for DTM since 2011.
nope, i mightve seen them on a car once actually, one of those whitewall tyres on an e-type but otherwise ive never heard of them.
Hankook has been around for years and usually in Australia you see more of them in light truck and heavy truck tyres, they're probably as common as kuhmo

Rosberg is a good leader, but will be very interesting. Looking forward to seeing Vettel and Alonso battle it out for position a T1!
vettel just simply owned that race, was alonso was out the equation, he had it. good effort/ strategy from the lotus team - was unsure at the start, but came together in the end. poor strategy/thinking from force india with di resta for the first stop, too late for 3 stop, too early for 2stop.
reprimand for webber, looked like a questionable move on rosberg tbh. i just couldnt believe the gap vettel was pulling, there was an ad break and it went up almost 2.5 seconds. how did it go so wrong? he was looking decent early on and fell away completely relatively quickly as well.
Webber said the battles he had with other deivers destroyed his tyres and strategy, the 3 place drop pretty much destroyed any hope of him staying with seb. Perez did quite well here, and man im sick of button all he does is winge.
I was enjoying how aggressive Perez was being, was good to see. Glad Whitmarsh didn't tell him to stay put. As for Webber, it looked promising after the first round of pit stops. Was pretty much a sitting duck towards the end, saw a few times he was struggling for traction against Hamilton.
I've read a few articles that attribute most of these incidents being down to somene not making sure the fuel cooling system in the rig is on,knocking out the power plug,or even just plain forgetting! Another Example of how a low cost part,compared to the cars,can bring down even the biggest,well funded teams. Wouldn't racing be boring if there was no such thing as Human Error!!!!LOL ]
Im disappointed with this Pirelli garbage, its a shame though because Pirelli probably make the best Tyres you can get, but FIA is forcing them to ruin F1(which tends to be FIAs job anyway).
