Bridgestone unveils the first three F1 season races tire choices




Bridgestone has revealed the compound allocations of Potenza tyres for the first three rounds of the 2010 F1 world championship - in Bahrain, Australia and Malaysia - as the category moves into the second season following the return of slick rubber.



Quote from the article:
Changes for 2010 include a narrower front tyre and new constructions front and rear, while all four dry compounds are modified from those used last year. Just as in 2009, non-consecutive allocations of tyres will occur at many circuits but, despite the changes to the compounds themselves, the compound names remain the same, with the range consisting of hard, medium, soft and super soft. There are two distinct temperature working ranges of tyres, with the hard and medium having a higher temperature working range than the soft and super soft.
