F1 plans higher-degradation tyres for 2027 season
Original: F1's plan for higher-degradation tyres in 2027
Formula 1 is working on a plan to introduce tyres with higher degradation from the 2027 season. The idea is aimed at producing more varied race strategies and unpredictable racing, with drivers managing wear over longer stints. Details of the proposal, including how tyre suppliers and teams would adapt, remain limited, and the plan is likely to face scrutiny from teams and drivers before any switch.
Why now: Tyre behaviour directly shapes race outcomes, so any planned change to degradation levels is a major talking point among F1 fans and teams.
