All Pirelli`s racing tyres are recycled for other uses. Apparently once chopped up & melted down they are used as soft flooring in horse stables ,kids playgrounds & they are burnt for heating purposes if you believe all the bumf!? This goes back to Goodyears days. Obviously their applications changed along the way as new technique`s for usage have appeared.
'Carbon neutral' on fuel, but what about tyres? How many must be manufactured, transported and disposed of at each race? Has there been a study on how much pollution of all types is caused by F1's throwaway culture regarding tyres?
