Пирели за събота


Пол Хембри:
Unusually, track temperature in Singapore is often lower than ambient temperature, so it was important for the drivers to warm up the tyres effectively and get the most out of them instantly, with the track evolving all the time during the qualifying session. We’re expecting to see two stops tomorrow, although some teams could try three. With such a speed advantage from the supersoft tyres, the teams were looking after those in particular: we saw them being used for multiple runs, so that the drivers can save new sets for the race. However, we’ve seen from the past that it’s also possible to use an innovative tyre strategy to finish on the podium from outside the top 10. The strategic possibilities in Singapore are wide open and tyre management is sure to be key.
