A new addition to the Pirelli range for 2025?
Pirelli have revealed plans to introduce an extra soft tyre to their range for the F1 2025 season, with Ferrari drivers Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz trialling the new C6 compound in a test at Paul Ricard this week.
Driver complaints over the current tyres continued at last weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix, where Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton told media including PlanetF1.com that the tyres were “too hard” after most were able to complete almost an entire race distance on one set. It is believed that teams will continue to have three different compounds to choose from at each race next season, with the C6 likely to appear at street circuits such as Monaco and Singapore.
Mario Isola, Pirelli’s motorsport director, has confirmed the Italian manufacturer is the driving force behind the plans to introduce the C6, which it is hoped will reduce overheating and result in more strategic variation.
