As a result of
Pirelli’s collaboration with the FIA to ensure a better monitoring of tyre
usage parameters, the Italian firm is trialling a special type of sticker on
each tyre tread in Bahrain.
These stickers read the maximum temperature reached by the tyre tread while
the tyres are being pre-heated by the teams in their tyre blankets.
Pirelli prescribes a maximum temperature of 110°C (230°F), which should not
be exceeded at any point before the tyre takes to the track.
The FIA will ensure that this limit is respected, together with the minimum
tyre pressures when leaving the pits and maximum camber levels on the track.
