Not sure how I feel about this honestly. What does everyone else feel?

It doesn't really bother me. Pirelli is just following the directions from either the FIA or FOM when they design the tires. Even if we got a new manufacturer we'd still have very similar tires, just with a different name stamped on them.

Which is why pirelli have the deal, they already know how to make these tyres and F1 just wants consistency.

Really doesn't make much difference who makes the tyres as long as they're safe and consistent.
