Para já chegaram à conclusão de que são dois problemas distintos, vamos aguardar para saber realmente o que aconteceu:
Pirelli says initial analysis of Ferrari's tyres after the British Grand Prix showed that Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel's failures were caused by totally different issues.
Ferrari suffered a double blow in the closing stages of the Silverstone race when both Raikkonen and Vettel were forced to pit with tyre problems.
Raikkonen's tyre tread appeared to come apart on lap 49, while Vettel suffered a total failure one lap later. The incidents meant Raikkonen dropped to third, while Vettel slipped to seventh.
Pirelli has begun an immediate investigation into what happened, but said its first examination of the rubber suggests that the two incidents were not caused by the same problem.

"We are obviously investigating the tyres as usual but more deeply considering what happened," said Pirelli boss Mario Isola. "We believe but it has to be proven that the model failure of the two tyres is different. So we need to investigate.
"What we can exclude that we had any carcass failure on Kimi’s tyres because the tyre was still inflated. There is a part of the tyre that is damaged and we will investigate deeply on all the tyre and not only this tyre.
"Sebastian had a different issue with a loss of air, so we have to understand. We will provide a report.
