At next week’s Hungarian Grand Prix, qualifying will look a little different
During qualifying, teams are limited in what compounds they can use in dry conditions. Teams are required to use the hard compound during Q1, the medium compound during Q2, and finally they can use the softs during Q3.
The change will reduce the amount of tire sets needed during a weekend by 2 per car. It's a (small) move towards sustainability that has very little impact in the sport itself...
If they cared about the impact of their tires on sustainability, then why require Pirelli to make tires that degrade so quickly? Just require tires that last a whole race/qualifying distance?
They already tried this. It became dangerous as drivers that clearly had tire issues would not pit as the penalty for pitting for tires was quite severe.
I want to say it is either Kimi or Mika who had a bad set of flat spotted front tires they literally shook the car apart.
