Horner unsure of Pirelli's new measures: 'Is that going to be enough?

Pirelli's tyre problems were the topic of conversation in France on Thursday. Max Verstappen and Lance Stroll both lost control of their cars on the fastest part of the track in Baku, and many drivers are worried that similar problems will occur in France.

Not only the drivers, but also the teams are worried. At Red Bull Racing they doubt if the measures taken are enough to prevent similar problems."Firstly, we were just pleased no driver was injured. Accidents on that straight with walls in close proximity are never good to see. We worked fully with Pirelli and the FIA for them to understand what has gone on," Christian Horner explained to Sky Sports.

Are Pirelli's measures enough?

The rumours were that Red Bull and Aston Martin were under-inflated during the race, causing the tyres to break down. Horner denies that and explains what was done after the investigation."We have worked within the guidelines that Pirelli and so on come up with. Why did it happen? The result is that pressures have been increased."

Tyre pressure has increased by 2 PSI, but Horner doubts it's going to be enough."Is 2 PSI enough to prevent something like that happening again? I don't know. We obviously need to rely on Pirelli and their technical expertise. Hopefully we won't see incidents like we saw in Azerbaijan.," Horner concluded.
