    I just don’t understand why McLaren put Norris and Piastri on hard tyres.

    Even split strategies surely after seeing how long George lasted on softs

      We’ll see, the C1 is a new tire this year. It’s possible most teams underestimated it.

        TIL. I really need to pay more attention to things like this.

          The garbage tire from Silverstone last year is called C0 this year.

            Wait I didn’t know C0 was a thing. (Unless this means they just binned it, and I’m missing the joke.)

              No they’re still technically available though I doubt Pirelli are actually going to bring them out on any circuit this season. We have six compounds this year, C0-C5.

      I get the hards for Piastri, but soft was the obvious call for Lando. Just strange that they would give him such a disadvantage on the restart.
