Just to clarify for everyone. There will be no hard/control tyres at Winton/Barbagallo races. ie. ALL SOFT/Sprint tyres. Should see some nice new lap records and also some track damage!
But a combination of both sprint and control tyres will be used at various other events. |

It says "used" control tyres - so the teams can bring their own tyres for practice I guess. A bit silly to practice on different tyres than those you're going to race on though.

In slightly unrelated news, has the tracks contracts changed now that the super grippy tyre will be used all weekend, thus damaging the track |
