Here's your tyre allocation and number of laps from F1Tv.

Time to bring in Bernies sprinklers. Get them Inters on the track for sunday!

I believe thats about right for your tyre age and allocation.

Just need to work it out what is actually there IF the 3 tyre change and 20/22 lap limits are.

PRESUMING everyone runs mediums for the sprint your left with this:

Now PRESUMING that the FIA say its 3 mandatory tyre change stops. 59 / 4 (stints) leaves you with 14.75 laps for each tyre. Lets make it 15 for numbers sake.

So any tyre with over 7 laps would not be eligible to race, which leaves your allocation as follows:

Maximum available laps left per tyre.

Would it be advantageous to start on a used tyre if your strategy dictates that there will be a pitstop window on say lap 17? A team can put on a 5 lap old tyre to fully utilize the tyre life.
Or in all situations a brand new tyre with 20 lap life gives flexibility if there is an earlier stop and the car can be run harder.
For Sure!!

Russell on softs. That is disastrous for the leaders.

George getting his luck back this race. Two safety cars to protect those sorts which would have otherwise had issues.

Track is a joke .. losing 4/5 laps on SC's is silly as well for a sprint.

Won’t be the last SC either at this rate. Beach it, and that’s a SC
