WHAT’S CONFIRMED IN 2020
Just three colours at each race in 2020, with five different compounds available: C1 is the hardest, C5 is the softest.
- Each driver must save one set of the softest of the three nominated compounds for Q3. This set will then be returned for those who qualify in the top 10, but the remaining drivers will keep it for the race.
- Each driver must have both race sets available for the grand prix.
- Teams are free to choose the remaining 10 sets, making 13 sets in total for the weekend.
