All eleven teams have adopted similar tyre choices for forthcoming Malaysia Grand Prix.

Other than Toro Rosso, who's two drivers Carlos Sainz and Daniil Kvyat are taking eight sets of the soft tyres to Sepang, there is little variation between the teams.

While most are taking seven sets of the yellow-banded rubber, Red Bull and Manor take just six.

In terms of the medium and hard compounds the difference is mainly between the individual drivers with five teams, including Mercedes and Ferrari, seeing its two drivers opting for different selections.

Renault's Jolyon Palmer, still seeking his first point of the season, differs from all others by opting for four sets of the orange-banded hard rubber.
