Who will take pole today? Why am I asking, we all know it'll be Max ahahah. Still, the battle for P2 could be interesting, right!?

Is there a comprehensive overview on how tyre allocation works on sprint weekends compared to regular weekends? For instance, I've read on Wikipedia that drivers must use a new set of medium tyres in each of the first two Sprint Quali segments. So do they get more/different tyres as usual?

An infographic about what tyre is available at what point (and which tyres have to be returned) would be nice.

Section 30.5d of the Sporting Regulations:

Normal weekend (13 dry, 4 inters, 3 wets):

  • 2x Hard
  • 3x Medium
  • 8x Soft

Sprint weekend (12 dry, 4 inters, 3 wets):

  • 2x Hard
  • 4x Medium
  • 6x Soft

They get additional inters if practice/qualifying sessions are declared wet and they use a set.
