Radical suggestion ...
Chewing gum soft qually tyres
3 compounds of race tyre...
A... Gives performance for 1 stop strategy
B... Gives performance for 2 stop strategy
C... Gives performance for 3 stop strategy. (Selected tracks only)
Pirelli allocate A&B or B&C for event.
Teams given 2 sets of each for both FP 1 & 2 plus 2 sets of qually tyres for "Friday"
1 set of each plus 2 sets of qually tyres for FP 3.
Revised Qually format 3 sets.
Teams inform FIA/Pirelli confidentially of Choice of Race tyre.
FIA publish 1 hour before Race start.
New Race tyres 2/3/4 sets per type.
Overall might be more tyres but cuts out complaints about running different compound that aren't different enough. Also means no longer hearing race radio messages about looking after tyres in Qualifying because they are starting on them.
