Pirelli has made public its web finally definitively establishing the color code used in the F1. It seems that this show is inspired colors when they were in 86 Beneton providers and their tires wore the colors of the "United Colors of Benetton" According to this release the colors that identify the various compounds are:
- Rain
- extreme - Orange
- Intermediate - super soft blue
- -
- Soft red - yellow
- Media - Hard
- white - silver
The identification of compounds materialize painting the logo and the words Pirelli P -Zero with the old colors. Pirelli wants to distance this way the old provider F1, Bridgestone, who only identified one of the compounds chosen (the softer) for a weekend with a green stripe painted around the edge of the tire.
This system will give that talk a lot, the truth is not very different. The compounds chosen for the first three tests year - Australia, Malaysia and China - are the hard and soft, identified with silver and yellow markings. With a bit of sun and away from sports journalists or buy glasses or going to have to play a guessing game.
To accentuate the differences between the main and optional tire, Pirelli's strategy is to give teams two options with a compound of difference between them. However, this strategy can be revised if track conditions warrant.
Paul Hembery, Pirelli's Motorsport Director said "We are very excited about our return to Formula 1 after 20 years and marking our tires is a proactive way give color to the competition. What better way is there to symbolize our good mood that through the color of the logos on the flanks? Besides, it easier for viewers at home track and easily recognize the compounds selected by each team, a vital information this year, it seems that the release of our tires will be key in race strategies .
