Sweet Jesus I suppose this is not a big thing but still it seems kind of silly.

Silver looks a lot like white. Should have used something else. Mebbe green.

I don't think medium and hard tires will be used during the same race.

So the stripes will be gone? I actually liked those better than Champcar's red sidewall (which is how the stripe materialized).

Those stripes were only practical because they were in the old tire grooves.

Wow, I can't believe I forgot they didn't use them last year outside of the inters/wets.
