Twitter also says port main gear removed, so I guess '558's flying high on jacks!

No it's part of Sams duties to ensure that when we have a leaky brake unit the tyre does not stand in a puddle of oil which will cause it to blister and then it will need to be replaced, which will be another £1000 down the tubes. This tyre is only half worn so I'm trying to look after it!
