While checking out the local weather forecast on TV I came across some F1 footage of qualifying in Japan. I was absolutely fascinated by the IR shots of tyre temps and how they cycled so rapidly during the race.
I had always imagined that when a tyre got up to 'working temperature' then you were in good shape.
