10:08 – Formula 1 tyre supplier Pirelli has revealed drivers’ choices for the Singapore Grand Prix, with teams loading up on the Ultra Soft rubber, as expected.
Pirelli matched its 2016 selection of Ultra Softs, Super Softs and Softs for this year’s event at the Marina Bay Circuit, which will be held from September 15-17.
Most drivers (13) have selected 10 sets of Ultra Softs, with Haas pair Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen the most conservative, picking eight sets.
Super Soft selections range from one to four, with Haas taking the most, given its Ultra Soft allocation, while Soft selections range from one to two.
Formula 1 championship rivals Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel differ only in that the Ferrari driver has one more set of the Ultra Soft tyres, and the Mercedes driver one more set of Super Softs.
As usual, drivers were free to pick 10 out of 13 compounds; a set of Ultra Softs will be held for Q3, and a set of Super Softs and Softs for the race (one of which must be used).
