SPIELBERG, Austria -- Pirelli says it may be able to lower its tyre pressure prescriptions at upcoming races if the FIAs new procedure for checking pressures has the desired effect.Since the Italian Grand Prix last year, the FIA has enforced Pirellis pressure perscriptions at each grand prix to make sure undue stress is not put through the tyres. In order to stop teams working on ways to reduce the pressures when the tyres are fitted to the car -- and therefore gain a competitive advantage -- the FIA will now check pressures before the tyres are fitted rather than when they are on the car. It is believed the new procedure will eliminate any tricks the teams found to heat up the tyres while they are checked on the car before cooling them on track to reduce the pressures.Yes we are working with them [the FIA] to improve the system of checking the prescription, Pirellis motorsport director Mario Isola said. With this new system, to check the tyres before they are fitted on the car, the pressure, we have a consistent system to measure it independent from the session.So in FP1, FP2, FP3, quali and race we measure all the tyres in the same way, we have consistent numbers in all the sessions, so we are 100 percent sure that only the blanket is heating the tyre and teams are quite happy because once they fit the tyre they are not allowed to bleed air but they have a reference pressure.I can give you a result in a couple of races when we have some numbers to evaluate but for me the system is working so lets see what is going to happen.Tyre pressures have become a sensitive issue in F1, with many drivers saying Pirelli consistently set them too high for the circuits. Following Friday practice in Austria, Fernando Alonso complained that F1 is the the only category where you cannot setup your own car.But with some teams finding ways to lower their running pressures, Pirelli has had no choice but to go conservative across the board. If the new system ensures running pressures consistently remain within the limits Pirelli is targeting, then Isola said the tyre manufacturer would consider lowering the pressure prescriptions from the historic highs that have featured at rounds so far this year.Of course. The starting pressures are based on simulation or our analysis, but then on our analysis basically we consider a qualifying lap and a race lap, and you measure the stress on the tyre and the stress on the tyre is linked to the running pressure.That is something that at the moment we are not enforcing, because we are enforcing the starting pressure. So depending on the running pressure, if now that we have changed the system, we measure higher running pressure, it means that we can drop down a little bit on the starting pressure, depending on the number that we measure because the target is to run at a certain pressure.

The Mercedes team-mates and title rivals crashed out on the opening lap at Barcelona as they battled over the lead after Rosberg overtook pole-sitter Hamilton at the start.Although the pair have tangled on track before, most infamously at the 2014 Belgian GP, Sundays race was the first it has resulted in both drivers dropping out of the race. And Brundle reckons the significance of the incident cannot be underestimated.That vision of those two in the gravel trap at Turn Four on the first lap I think will be the defining moment of this season and possibly the defining moment of where the Mercedes team heads for 2017, said the Sky Sports F1 commentator. Anthony Davidson looks at the collision between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg that wiped bboth Mercedes drivers out of the Spanish GP on lap one.dddddddddddd I think it will be a defining moment because they have to make decisions moving forward. And we have seen with other teams in history - and maybe a little bit with [Max] Verstappen and [Carlos] Sainz at Toro Rosso - can they continue working together those two drivers?Do they have to find a new way moving forward? Is it recoverable? It will be very interesting to see how they react to this afternoon because I think it is a defining moment. Hamilton and Rosberg crash out Watch the incident which saw both Lewis and Nico crash out of the Spanish GP Hamilton and Rosberg have been team-mates at Mercedes since 2013 and their partnership, while delivering the Brackley team back-to-back world championship doubles in 2014 and 2015, has regularly simmered and occasionally boiled over amid exclusive duels for the titles. Rosbergs current contract runs out at the end of the season, but the German has been thought likely to be offered a new deal after winning the opening four races of 2016.Hamilton is in the first season of a new three-year agreement which runs to the end of 2018.
