What is so different now?
The teams had freedom to choose which compound they wished to use to suit their car and track. At pit stops where they changed tyres they could use new tyres of the same compounds. Now they get to choose from a compromised choice where nothing is ideal and they HAVE to use two of the choices during the course of the race.
