Fun fact: in NASCAR, they have a valve stem in the tires to keep the air in, which after an error on a pit stop that knocked it off, it costed Chase Elliott The win in the 2020 Penzoil 400 at Las Vegas.
Most interesting was MotoGP with an A-symmetrical rear tire. I know that they can have 1 compound at the front and the other at the back but not that one side is one compound and the other side is other compound.
NASCAR doesn't use multiple compounds on road courses, in dry conditions. In wet-weather conditions, however, tire supplier Goodyear gives teams grooved rubber to use. The Xfinity Series for whatever reason has more luck when it comes to rain races, because there have been plenty over the past 13 seasons or so. The Cup Series used rain tires in race conditions for the first time at the Charlotte road course/oval configuration, also known as the ROVAL, in 2020, when the surface wasn't ready for slicks. The usual slick-surfaced tires eventually made way onto the cars as a dry racing line was formed and the track was drying out. To my knowledge the protocols I noted here aren't changing for 2021.
If the F1 2020 game is accurate, then the follow tracks use the C1s/C5s: C1: Zandvoort, Barcelona, Silverstone, Spa, Suzuka, Interlagos C5: Monaco, Canada, Singapore, Abu Dhabi
MotoGP what's the most interesting. I didn't know they had multiple compounds in one tire. The person that came up with that must have been a big fan of Harvey Dent as Two-Face in Batman
All drivers in Q3 (P1-P10) must start the race on whatever tires they used for their fastest lap in Q2 (barring changing from wet/dry types). The back half of the grid (P11-P20) can start the race on any of the compounds that they want.
Its a bit different in Formula 1 this year, each manufacturer has the same amount of each tyre per race weekend. 2 hard, 3 medium and the rest soft (8 maybe???).
Tires are any drivers best friend; the first time you try winter tires on snow/ice, it will change even the most dubious person thinking they're just all the same rubber.
MotoGP having different compounds on either side of the tire is crazy. That sounds like something that would be confusing as a driver rather than helpful.
"Tyre" is British spelling, in US / American spelling is "tire" after US tried to simply spelling - the Americans changed it from "Mother" language. Technically, "The differences often come about because British English has tended to keep the spelling of words it has absorbed from other languages (e.g. French), while American English has adapted the spelling to reflect the way that the words actually sound when they're spoken."
Personally, F1 tires are kinda suck, i mean i play F1 games with the slick and it just dies quicker than running out of barb wire in the trenches Oh forgot to mention there's is tyre management, but at the end of the day, the tires just burn out
So you bring us here telling us tyres are more complicated than we think, day this is going to be everything we need to know, and then proceed to tell us basically nothing about the tyres, and just give a basic overview of the different rules for each series. What a waste of six minutes that was.
Autosport win this year's award for "Best Motorsport-related Photoshop Job" for that thumbnail. 😂😂
That thumbnail is pretty epic.
'twenty twenty twenty twenty one'
Quatre-vingt-un. :P
It’s funny to think how tyres are the main limiting factor in how fast street and race cars can go, “it’s not the car it’s the tyre”😂
More powerful engines? Nah give me a 4 tires of Michelin and i show these k swap Rx7 how to do some racing
Yeah, and it feels like tires are such a tiny detail in performance
A pity Merc couldn’t see this before Sakhir
lol the thumbnail at first I thought it's real and I was like what they are doing inside the tires
Give raise to the thumbnail editor!
Thats the best thumbnail u have ever made😅 just perfection
That Thumbnail is so amazing 👍🏻
On ovals where the cars are only turning left, the camber of the tires are leaning to the drivers left...
I'll never 'tyre' of hearing you talk about this!
You can see your self out now😂
Im excited to see the extreme E. Hopefully they could go race this year!
I love it! I had no idea Moto GP used so many different compounds per season
Fun fact: in NASCAR, they have a valve stem in the tires to keep the air in, which after an error on a pit stop that knocked it off, it costed Chase Elliott The win in the 2020 Penzoil 400 at Las Vegas.
Shame they didn't touch on the rain tires they ran at the Charlotte Roval this year either
RE the Motor GP tyres. It's the compound on the shoulder of the tyre, as opposed to the side wall.
Most interesting was MotoGP with an A-symmetrical rear tire. I know that they can have 1 compound at the front and the other at the back but not that one side is one compound and the other side is other compound.
Im going to like this for the thumbnail good job
Wonder if NASCAR does something different for road courses?
NASCAR doesn't use multiple compounds on road courses, in dry conditions. In wet-weather conditions, however, tire supplier Goodyear gives teams grooved rubber to use. The Xfinity Series for whatever reason has more luck when it comes to rain races, because there have been plenty over the past 13 seasons or so.

A very informative video, I learned a lot.
Heinz Harald-Frentzen: "I like my tires round and black". 🤔
Now there's a name i have not heard in a long time.
Juha Kankkunen: "Round black Pirelli"
Those motoGP facts were pretty interesting
How often are c1 and c5 compounds used in f1
If the F1 2020 game is accurate, then the follow tracks use the C1s/C5s:
C1: Zandvoort, Barcelona, Silverstone, Spa, Suzuka, Interlagos
C5: Monaco, Canada, Singapore, Abu Dhabi
Really informative. Thanks.
What about WRX, DTM etc?
Indycar having tyres for each track and more is pretty crazy.
Thumbnail is golden I have to say
2:20 How is the tire going to have less rubber. The contact patch changing too or just the profile?
I think it's because of the lower profile. The sidewall of the 18 inch tire is smaller.
The contract patch and side walls are becoming thinner which is supposed to have something to do with heat absorbed and disapation
MotoGP what's the most interesting. I didn't know they had multiple compounds in one tire. The person that came up with that must have been a big fan of Harvey Dent as Two-Face in Batman
What about WEC/IMSA?
Wait gow does no.11 get to choose any compound?
All drivers in Q3 (P1-P10) must start the race on whatever tires they used for their fastest lap in Q2 (barring changing from wet/dry types). The back half of the grid (P11-P20) can start the race on any of the compounds that they want.
13 inch to 18 inch seems like such a wild jump in a sport where everything is measured down to the 1/1000th.
That's a winning thumbnail if I ever seen one.
Its a bit different in Formula 1 this year, each manufacturer has the same amount of each tyre per race weekend. 2 hard, 3 medium and the rest soft (8 maybe???).
I always wondered what the colors on the tires meant.
1:00 Back when they had like 6-7 dry compounds lmao
For me the Hypersoft , Ultrasoft, Super Soft, Soft, Medium, Hard and Very hard system was better than the current C1-C5 with Soft, Medium, Hard.
The Indy Oval tyres are leaning into the turn, and they only turn left so... Why wold they be leaning to the drivers' right?
video asside that thumbnail is genius xD
Tires are any drivers best friend; the first time you try winter tires on snow/ice, it will change even the most dubious person thinking they're just all the same rubber.
God bless you for using liters and kilograms 🙏🙏
I had no idea they run different compounds on either side of a tyre in moto gp
*sad WEC and IMSA noises*
To reduce the cost and improve sustainability f1 should limit 1 set tyres per gp weekend and eventually to 1 set per season
Legendary thumbnail
In the TWENTY TWENTY TWENTY one series
WEC?
What about drag racing and Top fuel dragsters? Everything you need to know, righto
The force a fuel car puts into the tire is nuts.
When I saw WRC I got happy
What I found mind blowing is the concept of the asymmetrical rear tyre in Moto-Gp.
Couldn't have done Wec or imsa
What about wec
Had no idea Moto GP tire strategies can be so different.
Tires are really important. I wish pirelli would make some instead of using the same crap for 3 years.
Drag Racing: Am I dead to you?
And probably the most interesting, as it relates to tires.
Funny how people shit on Pirelli but when Alonso tested his old v10 he was like "holy shit can't wait to drive it on Pirellis
I remember a NASCAR driver who understeered a F1 because he had to turn right
MotoGP having different compounds on either side of the tire is crazy. That sounds like something that would be confusing as a driver rather than helpful.
Yea fr
I'm thinking you would have been better off calling this road tires and doing another episode for offroad. I mean... It's a footnote here
I'm sure they are, but I still find it baffling that someone could be interested in them enough to become an expert!
BONO!!! ME TYRES ARE DEAD!!!
I wonder why F1 with its near-unlimited resources never tried tyres with different compounds like Moto GP. 🤔
Not much detail on the WRC tyres!
We know how important tyres are, we listen to Shamilton whining about them all year!
yeah moto gp tyres were complicated
Tires aren't the only thing touching the ground of a race car, ask senna
5:46 twenty twenty twenty twenty twenty twenty twenty twenty one
You forgot WEC
(5:46)... "Twenty Twenty Twenty Twenty-One"
Is that you Jess?
Only forgot touring cars
Am I stupid or have I been spelling tire wrong this whole time
"Tyre" is British spelling, in US / American spelling is "tire" after US tried to simply spelling - the Americans changed it from "Mother" language. Technically, "The differences often come about because British English has tended to keep the spelling of words it has absorbed from other languages (e.g. French), while American English has adapted the spelling to reflect the way that the words actually sound when they're spoken."
NASCAR tyres have a tyre within a tyre, but they still use leaf springs on the rear 🤔, 😂
Innerliners are only on super speedways
No WEC boo. :P
Also dem freaking F1 tires needs to improved, they die too quickly.
Bring back michelin and bridgestone
Oh no, I need to stop watching Rally events this year too!
Personally, F1 tires are kinda suck, i mean i play F1 games with the slick and it just dies quicker than running out of barb wire in the trenches
Oh forgot to mention there's is tyre management, but at the end of the day, the tires just burn out
#WeSayYesToMazepin
déjà-vu?????
Sad WEC noises.
Formula Drift: yea they last 2 runs thats it lmao
What the fuck is a tyre?
Wec :p
Pirelli has been the worse thing to happen to F1, great for publicity but worse than any other manufacture because...
5:14 and thats why formula e is boring
One of a few reasons.
First fact, they're spelled "tires" 😉
Tyre is also an acceptable spelling
Its spelt "Tyres"
English (Traditional) is the standard form of English, English (Simplified) is just something Americans use
@@Garfie489 I'll stick to tyres then😂😂 The part that irritates me is that if you do or say something differently to an American, you're wrong
Worst graphics ever.
So you bring us here telling us tyres are more complicated than we think, day this is going to be everything we need to know, and then proceed to tell us basically nothing about the tyres, and just give a basic overview of the different rules for each series.
What a waste of six minutes that was.
Twenty twenty, twenty twenty one.
