As in 2007, the regulations state that each driver will receive 14 sets of dry tyres for a Grand Prix (seven of each compound), in addition to four sets of wet tyres and three sets of extreme wet tyres. The softer of the two specification Potenzas at each race will once again be marked by a white line painted in the base of the second from inside groove.
Looking beyond this season, Bridgestone also announced this week that they plan to test slick tyres again in April, ahead of their possible return in 2009.
Tyre compounds for the first nine Grands Prix of 2008:
- Australia - soft, medium
- Malaysia - medium, hard
- Bahrain - soft, medium
- Spain - medium, hard
- Turkey - medium, hard
- Monaco - super-soft, soft
- Canada - super-soft, soft
- France - soft, medium
- Britain - medium, hard
Tyre specification for the two new street circuit at Valencia and Singapore will be announced at a later date.
