Formula 1 tyre supplier Pirelli has confirmed the compound choices made by each driver for next weekend’s Bahrain Grand Prix.
Pirelli has nominated the Supersoft, Soft and Medium tyres in order to meet the demands posed by the Sakhir Circuit.
As per usual, drivers have 13 sets of tyres available for the event, and they are permitted free choice of the three allocated compounds for 10 of those sets.
Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull have adopted similar approaches, choosing seven sets of Supersofts, four Softs and two Mediums.
The only variation among the big teams is from Valtteri Bottas, who will have an extra set of Softs available to the detriment of his Medium allocation.
McLaren has taken the most aggressive stance, selecting nine sets of the red-banded rubber for both Fernando Alonso and Stoffel Vandoorne.
