Goodyear says that tyre strategy will be important as the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) heads to Oulton Park for rounds 13-15 of the championship this weekend. The circuit is one of the most demanding on tyres on the calendar, as drivers face the undulating Cheshire track’s blind corners. Drivers will be allocated three sets of Goodyear’s soft compound tyres and one set of the hard compound this weekend. Drivers may also choose to use up to two sets of carryover tyres from previous events, but the medium compound, which is expected to be the more popular carryover choice for this event, is only allowed to be used in FP1 and FP2.
