But some teams may not be able to afford the full allocation of new tyres at each event.
Some teams may be putting 'used' tyres on their car on occasion, as they have to pay for them from Dunlop.
'A driver may use a maximum of 12 new ‘standard compound’ tyres plus 8 previously marked/declared standard compound tyres per Meeting, including any Free Practice session(s), except at a driver’s first Meeting where a maximum of 16 'standard compound' new tyres may be used. The number of previously marked/declared tyres may be increased if less than 12 new tyres are marked/declared, always provided that the total number of tyres (20) is not exceeded at any time. '
