OK, you're read the explanations; how Pirelli will nominate two mandatory race sets for each car and one set of the softer compound will have to be kept for use in Q3 only, and at least one of the two sets must be used during the race... yadda, yadda, yadda.

Thankfully, those kind folk at Pirelli have provided a video.

Now can they please do another video to cover qualifying.

"So, now tghe drivers aren't allowed to know what their opponents are doing during the race, the strategy is turned over totally to the boffins "Back Home". That doesn't sound like puting more respnsibility on Drivers to me!

Stupid rules which simply introduce needless complexity. My guess is that in ordert to accomodate the softer (i.e. less robust) tyres teams will rely even more on aero to try and extend tyre life\grip. Following cars are likley therefore to be disadvantged even more...."

"Rules are interesting things and perhaps someone can help me here.
Each driver has to use 2 sets of tyres,1 of each compound. BUT does he have to use them as sets? Can he decide that the hards are great for the back and softs are great on the front, or the other way around if it works on his setup. He is still using the 2 sets but in a different way.Could be very interesting."
