I think it's unlikely we will see a tyre war return. However I would be in favour of a return. For sure it has it's drawbacks, but it does offer variety, which is what you need for exciting racing. And you would see surprises. Damon Hill in an Arrows in Hungary comes to mind. That is one example. It's fine as long as both tyre companies are close enough in performance, so one doesn't completely dominate the other. Easier said than done though. Of course some teams might struggle if their tyre isn't up for it on a particular weekend. But then some teams have struggled because they haven't had the right engine, so where do you draw the line?
