Pirelli Brings Softest Tyre Compounds to Saudi Arabian Grand Prix

Pirelli has selected the C3, C4, and C5 compounds for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

As RaceBrief.com reports, this year the Italian manufacturer has opted for softer tyres compared to last season’s allocation for the Jeddah race. The decision aims to encourage two-stop race strategies, though current predictions suggest most teams will likely opt for a one-stop approach.

Mario Isola, Head of Pirelli Motorsport, stated that tyre degradation at the circuit is fully under control. He noted that with careful management of race pace, a single pit stop remains a viable option.
