Talking of tyres I did notice Wagner was on Michelins and Formaux on Pirelli. Don't want to infer that was any particular advantage or disadvantage but it means it's difficult to compare their performance directly.
I checked in Supplementary regulations and find this bullshit:
7.2 Number of tyres
The number of tyres one competitor is allowed to use is limited by a maximum number of 18 tyres.
Only studded tyres, winter tyres and FIA-homologated tarmac tyres are allowed. In these maximum
number of 18 tyres, there is a maximum of 12 studded tyres on 14”, 15” or 16” rims in compliance with
the vehicle homologation, a maximum of 12 winter tyres (with or without studs) on 17” or 18” rims in
compliance with the vehicle homologation and a maximum of 12 FIA-homologated tarmac tyres in
compliance with the vehicle homologation allowed.
Cars with smaller homologated rim diameters are excluded from the regulation above.
Road-legal winter tyres (with or without studs) are excluded from the above regulation and may be
used without any limit.
At Shakedown there is no limitation concerning the number of tyres.
Supplementary Regulations JR23 10 / 22
Intermeds, wet tyres and gravel tyres are not allowed in the competition. For determination of those
tyres the FIA tyre homologations and price lists of the manufacturers are valid.
Exceeding the maximum number of tyres will lead to a report to the stewards by the clerk of the course
who will issue a time penalty of 1 minute per tyre above the limit.
Unbelievable.
