It was us who told the FIA at the end of the race that their treads were too big - we are not going to accept losing this way anymore," Brawn was quoted as saying in Wednesday's Gazzetta dello Sport. Asked what advantage a wider tread gave to a car, Brawn said: "It gives a better balance to the front of the car when braking because of the distribution of weight, making it more efficient on the bends."
Brawn said Ferrari went to the FIA after Bridgestone came into the possession of some pictures taken in the paddock by a Japanese photographer in Budapest. "They showed that the front Michelin tyres had an excessively large tread so we went to see Charlie Whiting (the race director)," said the 48-year-old Englishman. "Then we sent the famous letter on the basis of the measurements and photos. We could have done nothing, not informed the FIA and then made a complaint at the next race, but that didn't seem like the right thing to do."
