KeymasterIn his usual post-race video interview Pirelli motorsport director Paul Hembery discusses the two punctures Felipe Massa suffered during the race.
Intriguingly, he mentions the identity of the driver whose debris caused the first puncture was “amusing” but doesn’t reveal who it was:
So whose was it?

InactiveWas it a shard from Alonso’s broken DRS?
Also, I want to know what form of racing that video is a computer simulation of, because it looks incredibly close and exciting.

ParticipantOne would think that it was either his own FW or something from Alonso’s DRS,

InactiveThat’s plain stupid. If it was that amusing and nothing to be ashamed of, why we haven’t seen it yet?

ParticipantIt must be Rubens Barrichello……. He was actually at the GP I recall…..

ParticipantCould it have been something off hamilton’s car? (With him saying something happened and suddenly the car felt good -what it that’s what happened, it would bring a wry smile to my face)
Other than that, could it have been some kind of team sunglasses or something?22nd April 2013, 12:28 at 12:28 pm #232435matt90

ParticipantLost yet another pair of sunglasses, this time on the grid. Hope that didn't cause Massa's tyre problems. Or maybe Niki nicked them ;))

ParticipantHa, that would really be “amusing” if Brundles sunglasses caused the problem @andae23!

KeymasterIt was cut at the top of the tyre – then the bottom, then top again, then bottom again and so on…..
