Goodyear's Strategy for BTCC Racing Tires

Goodyear says tyre strategy will be crucial as the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) heads to Oulton Park for rounds 13-15 of the championship this weekend. The circuit is one of the most demanding on tyres in the calendar, with drivers facing the challenge of Cheshire's demanding corners.

This weekend, drivers will be allocated three sets of Goodyear soft compound tyres and one set of hard compound tyres. Drivers can also use up to two sets of tyres carried over from previous events, but the medium compound, which is expected to be the most popular this weekend, is only permitted for use during FP1 and FP2.
