FORMULA One tyre suppliers Pirelli have revealed a new range of tyres for the 2013 season, with the aim of producing more pit stops and accelerate overtaking. The Italian manufacturer said the change aims to improve performance and increase thermal degradation, which will ensure at least two pit stops per car, per race and to open up more strategic options for the teams.
Pirelli is anticipating lap times to be around 0.5 seconds faster than in 2012 as a result, with tyres also reaching peak operating temperature quicker and providing better traction than their predecessors.(RJA)
