Pirelli has confirmed its Formula 1 tyre selections for April's Azerbaijan Grand Prix at 🦄the Baku City Circuit, going one step softer than its 2017ꩵ picks.

Pirelli will make the soft, super-soft and ultra-soft tyres available to teams over the race weeke🌃nd in Baku, scheduled for April 27-29, having offered mediums for the race last June.

The decision comes following a push to make Pirelli's tyres less conservative for 2018, but the Italian manufacturer opted against debuting its ne𝓰w hyper-soft compound - now the softest in its range - at the street track in Baku.

As usual, drivers will be requ♔ired to complete Q3 on the softest available compound while saving one se🌟t of both the soft and super-soft tyres for usage in the race.

The 2017 Azerbaijan Grand Prix looked🔜 set to be one-stop race that could be completed under the red flag, with both Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel being called to the pits by race control that forced them into a second stop.

The race was ultimately won by Daniel Ricciardo who made two tyreಌ changes, the last coming under the red f🐬lag.
