The reason is, ostensibly, to level the playing field. The reason Ecclestone pushed for a single tyre supplier/sponsor is because many teams seemed to have an advantage between one tyre supplier and the other.

Since this was instituted for the 2007 season, there have to be choices of two tyre compounds to even things out in terms of preference, speed and traction offered by the tyres. Also, since there is only one tyre supplier, it's important to have some choice.

it is an attempt to shake things up during the race, a was for teams to make up ground on the team ahead when the tire compounds are offset, and really to keep tires intresting now that there is only one tire supplier in the sport,

after years of the michilan/bridgstone drama not its the hard/soft drama

Hmmm... so that no team can bribe the tire company to design a set just for them? Basically what they had been doing for Ferrari the last 2 or so years?

If they make the "soft" specifically for you then you would really suffer when you put on the hard and visa versa!?

I think it's a silly rule when the same ends could have been reached by the FIA examining all tires and keeping them secure prior to races, but they chose this route to make the races more fair by alternating tire compounds.

It's true there has been a lot more rubber drama in F1 than IRl or other motorsports, so this must to have seemed the best way to counter it.

It's a way to get Bridgestone's name into the broadcast every ten minutes now that there's only one tire supplier.

in many circumstances: -comfortable tyres heat up speedier then puzzling tyres. -This additionally ability that they placed on out speedier. -A softer tyre is greater probable to grant greater grip. it truly is in certainty it. In F1, there is often one tyre greater stable then the different (the right hardness of the tyres varies from circuit to circuit). The softer tyre has a white stripe on it. for the duration of qualifying, drivers a loose to apply regardless of form of tyre they want. in the process the race, a motive force ought to apply the two comfortable and puzzling tyres in some unspecified time interior the destiny.
