Pirelli reveals tyre choices for next four races
Formula 1 official tyre supplier Pirelli has confirmed the tyre compounds that will be used in the upcoming races in Spain, Monaco, Canada and Austria.
;
In Spain, the teams will use the two hardest tyres in the Italian company’s range, the white-marked mediums and orange-marked hards, as these are the best combinations to deal with the high loads seen in Barcelona.
;
Conversely in Monaco, Canada and Austria, the two softest tyres in the range, the red-marked supersofts and the yellow-marked softs, will be used as they are best suited to the low-grip characteristics of each track.
;
Pirelli says that while the nominations are exactly the same as 2014, with the cars going faster this year, there is more energy going through the tyres.
;
For the first four races in this season, Pirelli opted for combinations of soft and medium tyres in Australia, China and Bahrain, and hard/medium for the race in Malaysia.
