Formula 1 | Pirelli: compounds chosen for Suzuka, China and Miami

La Pirelli communicated to the teams yesterday what compounds will be available for the Grand Prix di Japan, China e Miami, scheduled from April 7th to May 5th. At Suzuka, one of the most severe tracks on tires in terms of loads to which they are subjected, as per tradition the three hardest compounds from the P Zero range will be used: C1 like Hard, C2 like Medium e C3 like Soft. For the other two appointments the intermediate trio was selected, i.e C2 like Hard, C3 like Medium e C4 like soft, despite being slopes with very different characteristics. TO Shanghai, where we will start racing again after five years there will be the unknown of the adaptation of the ground effect single-seaters, introduced starting from 2022, on a track characterized by a balanced mix of curves of different speeds and one of the longest straights (around 1,2 kilometres) of the world championship calendar . In Miami, however, on a track that is relatively gentle on the tyres, the unknown will be represented by the temperatures which could be quite high and, therefore, cause significant thermal degradation of the tyres.
