According to Pitpass' sources, Michelin has experienced a problem here at Istanbul Park, which has resulted in the French manufacturer warning teams not to "touch" a number of the kerbs, especially Turn 13.
It's understood that the problem first came to light following Mark Webber's tyre failure in practice yesterday, with Michelin discovering that the kerbstones are 'cutting' into the tyres.
Michelin has notified the FIA and its teams warning that drivers should avoid hitting the kerbs.
