Below you can find the used tyres for each driver for the 2018 Russian Grand Prix.
Whether or not the Soft tyres will be used during the race yet to be seen. The Sochi track is very smooth and not very hard on the tyres.
Red Bull is the only top team that has new pink Hypersoft tyres and will probably use them in the race.
