Pirelli , the exclusive tire supplier to Formula One from 2011-2013, has revealed the tire compound choices for the next three Grands Prix in Belgium, Italy and Singapore.
In Belgium, Pirelli will bring the P Zero White medium tire and the P Zero Yellow soft tire.
For Pirelli’s home Grand Prix in Italy, the same two nominations will apply: medium and soft.
At the Singapore street circuit, the teams will be supplied with the P Zero Yellow soft tire and the P Zero Red Supersoft.
The varied characteristics of the Spa-Francorchamps circuit make it ideal territory for the P Zero White medium tire, which represents a good compromise between the soft and the hard rubber. With low temperatures common, the rapid warm-up time and instant performance of the P Zero Yellow tire will be another important factor.
At Monza the closely-matched characteristics of the medium and soft tire will give teams plenty of scope for strategy on the rapid Italian track – as could be seen on the last occasion that this combination was used, the closely-fought German Grand Prix.
Singapore, a street race run at night, will be an entirely different kind of Grand Prix, with circuit characteristics more similar to Canada. Consequently, the P Zero Yellow soft and P Zero Red Supersoft tires have been chosen, to generate the maximum grip within the tight confines and variable surfaces of the Singapore track.
