In another forum, a zillion posters said because he did 1-stop that he wore a few kg extra rubber off the tyres. But then would not the tyres be unsafe in the final laps?
Not necessarily.
Pirelli will have given the teams so data on how many laps the tires can run safely; which is not to say quickly.
It was a real shame.
Russell made a very bold call, and did make it stick on the track.
And if Spa had the traditional cool down lap, he could probably have picked up enough rubber to have made minimum weight.
