Bridgestone today issued their usual post-race press release, containing a debrief of the events during the race at Assen. This debrief is a little special, however, as there were the problems suffered by Ben Spies and Valentino Rossi with chunks of rubber going missing from the rear tire. Though Shinichi Yamashita has no explanation as yet of exactly what happened as yet - the tires are still being investigated at Bridgestone's Japanese headquarters - he did issue an apology for the problem.
Below is the text of the press release:

Assen, Tuesday 3 July 2012
Bridgestone slick compounds available: Front: Soft, Medium. Rear: Medium-soft, Medium (Asymmetric)
Bridgestone wet tyre compounds available: Soft (Main), Hard (Alternative)
Last Saturday’s Dutch TT at the fabled Assen circuit saw Repsol Honda’s Casey Stoner bounce back to score his third win of the season ahead of teammate Dani Pedrosa and Monster Yamaha Tech 3’s Andrea Dovizioso. The reigning champion now sits level with Yamaha Factory Racing’s Jorge Lorenzo in the MotoGP™ standings.
