The FIA has launched an invitation to tender for sole Formula 1 tire supplier for the 2017, 2018 and 2019 seasons of the F1 World Championship.
“Interested parties are hereby invited to tender to become the single supplier of tires to the competitors in the Championship”, reads the FIA invitation. The current F1 contract, which involves Pirelli ends at the end of next year. The publication of invitation to tender was released May 19, 2015. The submissions must be received by the FIA by June 17, 2015. “It should be noted that, whilst the wheel diameter is currently set at 13 inches, this should not preclude an increase in diameter if the tire manufacturer feels there may be advantages to the competitors by doing so. Full details should be provided,” reads the FIA release.
