Pirelli revealed the three tyre choices for the final Formula 1 race of the 2018 season, the Abu Dhabi GP.
The grand prix to be held during the November 23-25 date at Yas Marina Circuit following the Brazil GP will feature the red-coloured supersoft, the purple-coloured ultrasoft and the pink-coloured hypersoft compound.
This combination has already been used in Monaco and Canada in the 2018 season so far, while Pirelli has already announced that it will also be used in the race in Mexico before the grand prix in Abu Dhabi.

After the completion of qualifying, the Top 10 drivers will have to return that set, while the other drivers can keep it for the race.
