Pirelli to continue as F1 tyre supplier until 2023
ABU DHABI -- Formula One will retain the services of tyre manufacturer Pirelli as its sole supplier until the end of 2023.
Pirelli has supplied F1's tyres since 2011 and was on a deal which ran until 2019. Earlier this year F1 opened up a tender for the next contract cycle which will include the major engine and aerodynamic regulation changes planned for the 2011 season. One major change on the tyre side will be an increase from 13- to 18-inch wheel rims.
Although it faced competition from Korean supplier Hankook, Pirelli has retained the rights to continue on as the only supplier.
