F1 | What tyres will the teams and drivers have for the 2026 Spanish Grand Prix?

The Madring will make its debut on the Formula 1 calendar when it hosts Round 14, the Spanish Grand Prix – and tyre suppliers Pirelli have confirmed the compounds that will be in use throughout the weekend.

Pirelli will provide the drivers and teams with their C2 (as the hard), C3 (as the medium) and C4 (as the soft) compounds at the brand-new track, with tyre management likely to be a big talking point due to the smooth surface.
