Pirelli has data: 'See three types of asphalt in 'new' Zandvoort'

The weekend at Zandvoort has officially begun and the question beforehand was how the tires would perform. The plan to bring special tyres to Zandvoort was eventually binned, so this weekend will just be driven with the standard tyres.

In conversation with ZiggoSport, Mario Isola of Pirelli says it was interesting to see how the weekend would turn out at Zandvoort. The first free practice didn't really make sense in that respect.

Since there was no data from previous years, Pirelli had to wait and see what the data would look like. This data will be present after Friday.

"I don't expect any problems with wear and tear. It's our first year here, with good weather, and nobody complained about the hard tires. That means we're going to have a one-stopper on Sunday," Isola concluded with a prediction for Sunday.
