Williams to solve tyre problem
« on: July 20, 2006, 10:02:25 PM »
GMM)  Williams' problem with overheating Bridgestone tyres at Magny Cours has been isolated to an 'error' with the car's setup.

Both Mark Webber and teammate Nico Rosberg were affected - also in terms of outright performance - last weekend, and the Japanese tyre supplier said it would 'work closely' with the Grove-based team to get to the bottom of the inside shoulder problem.

But rookie Rosberg, 21, has now revealed that the glitch was a 'slight error with our setup'.

''The combination of the heat, the circuit lay out and specific corner cambers meant that the tyres overheated a little bit and went over their grip limit,'' he told his column for 'Castrol'.

Rosberg said the problem would be solved 'very easily' this week at Jerez.

He added: ''That aside, I think the performance last weekend showed that we've turned the corner and are improving again.''
