Abu Dhabi tyre options confirmed by Pirelli

Pirelli have confirmed that the C5 tyres will be the soft tyres at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix whilst the C3 and C4 compounds will be reserved for the hard and medium sets.

The race at the Yas Marina circuit will take place on the 1st December. The soft tyres will be the C5 set whilst the C3 and C4 sets will be used for the hard and medium tyres. With 13 tyre sets in total the teams will have free reign on what they use for their other ten at the season-ending race.

Lewis Hamilton won last season's edition as he rounded off another dominant season in impressive fashion under the Abu Dhabi lights.

The World Championship has been wrapped up by the Brit before the final race of the season in the last two seasons and many would be surprised to see the Drivers' Championship go down to the final race of the season, with Hamilton already holding such a significant lead over his teammate, Valtteri Bottas in second.
