The Pirelli F1 2026 tyre test


The Pirelli F1 current tyre generation since 2022

From 2026 season onwards the Pirelli Formula 1 front and rear tyres widths will slimming by 3 cms (30.5 to 27.5 cm front and 40.5 to 37.5 cm rear). Current Pirelli Formula 1 front and rear tyres widths are 30.5 cm (front) and 40.5 cm (rear).

Thoughts on that?

Aesthetically, to me, the 2026 tyres look worse.

Nevertheless, I think it's the lesser evil with the new chassis & engine regs.
