2015 Singapore Grand Prix

[Nitrodaze]

Tire pressures have nothing to do with it. This was something spouted around by journalists, including Brundle, at the weekend but the tire pressures were back to normal for the Signapore GP. The recommended PSI was 16 or 17 (can't remember which) whereas it was 19 in Monza which they won comfortably. It was just the nature of the track and them not being able to get the tires into the correct operating temperature but that was down to the car than tire pressures.

So let’s clarify what the minimum tyre pressures has been over the past few races:

Belgium: Front tyres – 18.5 psi; Rear tyres – 20 psi

Italy: Front tyres -19.5 psi; Rear tyres – 21 psi

Singapore: Front tyres – 18 psi; Rear tyres – 17 psi

Last year the front tyre limits were set by Pirelli at 16 Psi on the front. This has been raised by two Psi to 18 and the rear tyres must be at least 17 Psi.

Pirelli raised the tyre pressures at Monza by 3 Psi when compared to 2014.
