Well nearly anyway with 6 different colour logos on their F1 boots. Embarking on the first season of a three-year agreement to supply Formula One with tyres Pirelli has revealed the colours that will be used to distinguish the six different types of tyre that will be used throughout the season.
In order to tell the six tyres apart, each will carry its own distinct colouring on the Pirelli and PZero logos affixed to the sidewall. Under the sport’s rules, only two compounds of slick tyre – known as the prime and the option – will be used for each race. In addition to this, intermediate and wet tyres can be fitted if it rains.
The colours reflect the unique personality of each tyre, enabling viewers to tell instantly not only which is the prime and the option tyre, but also exactly which type of tyre is fitted to each car.
The six colours are as follows:
Wet – orange
Intermediate – light blue
Supersoft – red
Soft – yellow
Medium – white
Hard – silver
This means Yellow and Silver for the first race as Pirelli have already anounced soft and Hard compounds for OZ. - That's unless it rains of course.
