Tyre Choices for Canada 2018
There’s exactly the same tyre nomination for Canada as for Monaco, but the two venues couldn’t be any more different.
Monaco tends to be a track where the start order bears a close resemblance to the finishing order – but in Canada, anything can happen.
This is due to a demanding track layout that contains several overtaking opportunities, unpredictable weather, and – this year – the first big challenge for the new P Zero Pink hypersoft, which made its debut in Monte-Carlo.
While Monaco is well-known as the track that asks the least from the tyres all year, Montreal contains bigger speeds and different corners.
Below you can see all tyres that are used until now. Both Red Bull drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen will start on the Hyper soft tyres and will have a lot more grip and traction in the first laps of the race.
