how much was there to the tire debate?

watching this first weekend in formula one, it seems as if the boys over at bridgestone have answered any of the lingering questions about their 'sub par' tires. we all knew that the bridgestones were ahead of the michelin's when the track was wet, but dry and hot like in australia? does bmw williams and the rest of the teams going to see a repeat runaway ferrari michael shumacher championship season or is one race this early in the season not enough to draw any serious conclusions. remember though, ferrari went finished one, two, this past weekend. michael and rubens were battling for first until rubens had some brake problems. just throwing out a friendly debate, thats all.
take care.

The answer will be given this weekend in Malaysia, when it will be really hot. Temperatures in Australia were relatively low, said to be favouring Bridgestone once more.

Well it is supposed to be Summer here, but that Melbourne weather is always unpredictable. Around September last year, or the start of spring, over 500km of V8 Supercar racing he had a 4 seasons race in Melbourne where there was rain, hail, sunshine and wind. Malaysia though should be reasonably hotter than it was in Melbourne for Rnd 1
