Well that's partly true. F1 cars are delicately constructed as it is. Yes, turn in is hard on the tires and front suspension but that has a ripple effect that ultimately affects reliability. Its crazy like that. For e.g. a hard turn in woudl cause uneven wear in the front tires which will cause vibrations which works its way through the suspension and onto the chassis, finally straight onto the mechanicals.
