LONDON, England - Pirelli’s Formula 1 chief Paul Hembery has urged Formula 1’s bosses to make changes before the tyre-maker will commit to a new contract for the 2017 season.
He told Britain’s The Guardian newspaper that he fully supported efforts by geriatric Bernie Ecclestone to spice up the show and agreed one good change has been the ban on drivers changing their helmet designs.
"The driver has to become an international superstar, like David Beckham," said the Briton, “but we've got drivers who don't understand why it's crap to change a helmet every race and moan and bitch about it."
