6 May, 2013 Paul Hembery
Formula 1 teams will be given extra tyres for Friday free practice session from this week's Spanish Grand Prix to encourage them to provide more on track action for fans, supplier Pirelli said on Monday.
'We'll be supplying an extra set of prototype hard compound tyres for free practice, which will hopefully ensure that all the cars run throughout these sessions,' said motorsport director Paul Hembery in a preview of Sunday's race in Barcelona.
