2008 British GP Tyre Strategies

In 2008, the tyre regulations stipulate that the two dry tyre specifications must be visibly distinguishable from each other. At the British Grand Prix, the medium compound Bridgestone Potenza tyre was marked with a white line in the second from inside groove. The extreme wet weather tyre was also marked with a white line.
