Michelin tyre facts
April 22, 2010

Gabs-Tyres Leicester writes: Michelin Tyres UK’s headquarters is in Stoke on Trent, but its main car tyres manufacturing centre is in Dundee. It makes over 7 million tyres there each year, for export all over the world. The factory has been powered, since 2006, by two wind turbines, reducing both energy bills and the environmental impact of making tyres. Michelin makes a range of winter, or “cold weather” tyres in a range it calls “Alpin”. These Alpin tyres are made from a rubber compound which contains sunflower oil to improve grip in wet conditions. There’s something to think about when you reach for the cooking oil!

Chinese Grand Prix
April 20, 2010

Ian-Tyres Leicester writes: Congratulations to Jensen Button and Lewis Hamilton for their first and second places in the Chinese Grand Prix. It would appear that Jensen’s choice of tyres was possibly the deciding factor in his win. Did you know that all the Formula 1 tyres used in the race were manufactured by Bridgestone Tyres, in their Kodaira City technical centre in Tokyo? Bridgestone supply 1800 “Potenza” F1 tyres for each Grand Prix race, coupled with a team of tyre fitters who are equipped to fit 14 sets of tyres per hour for the duration of race meeting. As Jensen Button’s intermediate tyres lost their tread in the closing laps, he skidded off the still wet track surface, on one tight bend, which could have cost him the race. He was lucky, but you may not be if you drive in Spring rain on tyres with no more than 2mm of tread. Check your tread depth at regular intervals and replace your tyres as soon as it wears down to no more than 2mm of remaining tread.
