Pirelli reveals tyre choices for British GP

Published on 28 June 2016 by Mike Motilall

The F1 sole tyre supplier Pirelli has revealed the different tyre choices for the British Grand Prix. The Italian based company supplies three tyre-compounds every GP-weekend. It is mandatory for the teams to use two during the race.

As oppose to the Austrian GP, most of the teams have decided to have both of their drivers run on the same selection of tyres. Exception to that rule is the Haas F1-team.

The Sauber-team has opted for a more aggressive approach by choosing nine sets of the soft compound tyre, while Force India is quite conservative, only going for six sets of the softs.
