Bridgestone Motorsport Manager, Tohru Ubukata during the post race debrief of Le Mans released his findings regarding Pedrosa’s tire issue, here’s what he had to say:“Since Motegi we have also learned more about Dani’s front tyre.

This was the origin of a weak point in the tread of the tyre which, during the course of the race, worked its way to the surface, causing a crack to form in the rubber.
