Ferrari Mailing List: Pirelli F1 tyres

[Grahame Reinthal (grahame]

No refueling, but Pirelli are designing the tyres such that the hard
compound will only last 25 to 30 laps maximum and the soft about 10 to 12
laps or so. Thus, multiple tyre change pit-stops tyre and lots of
interesting tyre strategy decisions.  For some circuits, there could
potentially be 3 or even 4 pit-stops for some teams. Could be interesting.

Cheers,
Grahame

So, no refueling again this year I assume? The only pit strategy will be in
how long it takes
the teams to change the "tracks" on the interim models right? Has the new
tire supplier
(Pirelli?) had enough development time for "hard" and "soft" compound tracks
yet?

Average race speed will be much lower than last year's I'm guessing.
