Pirelli is satisfied with the performance of the tires in a race where the teams used a wide range of strategies…
Mario IsolPirelli: “We saw an interesting race with very close results – four drivers from four different teams finished less than 20 seconds apart. Saturday’s prediction that the two-stop strategy would be the best turned out to be true – the three riders who climbed to the podium did just that.
However, the one-stop strategy proved to be a viable alternative, as the Ferrari drivers demonstrated: Leclerc and Sainz drove more than half the distance on the Medium tires with no significant loss of efficiency, indicating progress in the settings of their cars.
Race day was cooler than Friday, reducing the risk of tire overheating. Another factor that played an important role in tire behavior was that the track soon became covered with rubbish rubber, although it was initially very muddy after Saturday’s rain.
It was a great honor for me personally and on behalf of Pirelli, title sponsor of the race, to present the winning Constructors’ Cup to Adrian Newey, who has made a huge contribution to the history of this team and our sport, and continues to do so today. to do so, on the very day that Red Bull celebrated its 100th victory.
