Teams go nuts over the ultrasoft tyres!!!

The teams have revealed their choice for the up comming Austrian Grand prix, the most prefered set of tyres seem to be the ultrasoft. the ultrasoft tyres are the ones marked in the purple or violet. This tyre is the most quick in the dry weather condition ,but the most easily degradeable. The tyre sets in total a team can choose is 13. But looking at this image it seems all want the upperhand at the most dry race in the Austria.

The aggressive stragies are being used by the Ferrari and the Williams. After seeing the Force India perform in the previous race in the Azarbhaijan Grand prix in Baku. It will be expected by the India based team to also use a two stop stratagy.

The tyre rules are as complicated as the grand prix rules itself so to explain it will be futile but I can give a very clear idea of the rules.
Under the 2016 regulations, Pirelli make three of their five dry-weather tyre compounds available at each event.
The Italian company allocates two sets of tyres for the race (only one of which must be used) and one set which can only be used in Q3 (the softest of the chosen three compounds). Each driver is then able to choose 10 further sets of tyres from the three compounds to take their weekend allocation to 13.

The 2016 tyre choices so far:
Australia - supersoft, soft, medium
Bahrain - supersoft, soft, medium
China - supersoft, soft, medium

Russia - supersoft, soft, medium
Spain - hard, medium, soft
Monaco - ultrasoft, supersoft, soft
Canada - ultrasoft, supersoft, soft
Europe - supersoft, soft, medium
Austria - ultrasoft, supersoft, soft
