Pirelli reveal 2017 tyres

Pirelli have shown the first images of the wider tyres that will be used in 2017.

Sebastian Vettel is in action today at Ferrari's private test track, Fiorano, driving a 2015 SF15-T, featuring modifications designed to simulate 2017 downforce levels. Haas' Esteban Gutierrez is set to take over driving duties tomorrow.

Vettel's running will consist of installation laps with slick tyres before running intermediate and wet tyres on an artificially dampened track for the rest of the day.

Sebastien Buemi will be the first driver to properly sample the new slick tyres when he drives a 2015 Red Bull at Mugello later this week.
