Formula 1 tyre supplier Pirelli announced that they will revise their tyre nomination for the Brazilian Grand Prix in November.

The hard and medium compounds were initially nominated. But due to the resurfacing of the Interlagos track, Pirelli was prompted to change their choice to the yellow soft compound and the white medium compound. This is the same choice as the United States Grand Prix.

“We’ve always said that we would be open to any changes if they were required,” said Pirelli’s Motorsport Director, Paul Hembery

“After further technical analysis of the impact of the revised circuit surface, together with a risk assessment suggesting a low probability of compound overheating due to extreme track temperatures, we have made this change with the unanimous agreement of all 11 teams.”
