Formula One official tyre supplier Pirelli have revealed the tyre choices made by each team ahead of next week’s 2019 season opener in Australia.
Slightly different selections for Scuderia Ferrari’s drivers, with Sebastian Vettel opting for just one set of the hard compound (White Hard C2), and three sets of mediums, while Charles Leclerc can use two sets of the hard tyres and three sets of the Yellow Medium C3. Both drivers can use nine sets of the Red Soft C4 tyres.
Renault pair Daniel Ricciardo and Nico Hulkenberg have made the most aggressive selection for the first race of the year, selecting 10 sets of the softest tyres available. The soft tyre will be the C4 compound for the first race of the year, the second-softest of the five available. Racing Point and Williams have chosen the fewest sets of sots, just eight for each of their drivers.
