Hi daz
As mentioned before this is a pretty unique situation at Worksop and not common many other series will specify a control tyre but not specify replacement times some series may include a set of tyres in the entry fee
At Worksop last year you could get 4 or 5 meetings with one set of tyres but this brought other problems
Consulting with drivers the organisers along with our main sponsor Schumacher have developed this new tyre mainly for this season
At the time of launch we were not sure of wear rates and longevity so with drivers approval it was decided rear tyres would be replaced each meeting to level playing field for everyone. This rule may change in future of course but talking to the drivers on Sunday the majority thought it was a improvement over previous years situation
Regards Dave
