Pirelli confirms drivers' tyre choices for French GP

Pirelli has confirmed the tyres that each driver will bring to the French Grand Prix in two weeks' time.

The Italian marque is bringing the middle range allocation available to it, with the C2 being the hardest compound, the C3 the middle and the C4 the softest.

The C4 compound is the clear favourite for the weekend, however some teams have opted for three sets of the C3, with Max Verstappen going for four.

Renault, Haas, Alfa Romeo and Toro Rosso have all chosen to bring 10 sets of the C4 compound, which is likely to be the most favourable in qualifying.
