Tyre degradation key challenge for teams at Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix

The Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, taking place this Sunday, June 13, features significant tyre degradation as a primary concern for Formula 1 teams. Pirelli has noted that the new softer tyre compounds may lead to multiple pit stops, unlike last year's strategies. With track temperatures reportedly high, the degradation levels across the C2, C3, and C4 tyres have been consistent. Teams have observed that managing tyre health will be critical, particularly given the challenging layout of the circuit and the potential for unpredictable race strategies.
