UltraSoft compound leads Austria tyre choices

Pirelli released each driver’s preferred allocation of tyre for next week’s Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring.

Unsurprisingly, the manufacturer’s UltraSoft compound is a widespread choice among the drivers which each choosing at least seven sets of the purple-rimmed rubber.

The other available compounds are the yellow-marked Softs and red SuperSoft tyres.

One noticeable difference between Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton, the men currently leading the fight for the title, is the Ferrari driver’s slightly more conservative approach with five sets of SuperSofts compared to his rival’s choice of only three.

Force India and McLaren however are going on the attack with ten sets of the UltraSoft compound allocated to each one of their drivers.
