Amazing footage, thanks for the link. At about 1:34 you can see Hamilton flat-spot his left front tire, then 6 seconds later you can see the flat spot roll by on the tire surface.

Also amazing to see how much lateral "float" there is with the tires on the rims and how much sidewall stress there is, even with those small stiff sidewalls.

Slow mo was nice but I really liked the Porsche Supercup race video on same page. Sequential shifters sound amazing.

Sidewalls aren't that small. I think maximum rim size is only 13" diameter.
