Use of tyres as complete sets

In Simple Terms

Teams must use their tyres in the complete sets given to them by the FIA. However, after Qualifying finishes, teams can mix and match different tyres from the same dry-weather category (like combining different Pirelli hard compound sets) for the race.

• All tyres must be used in their official allocated sets from the FIA
• Mixing tyres is only permitted after Qualifying ends
• Only tyres of the same dry-weather specification can be mixed together
• Wet-weather and intermediate tyres cannot be mixed with dry compound sets
