The Silver banded Hard tyre

Post

Has the Silver banded Hard tyre been used this season? I heard that they were used at the Indian GP as the Option Tyre.

(I haven't been following the races since September so let me know if they have been used.)

It was used as the prime at various of the early races (australia, malaysia and turkey IIRC), and the option at india.

The first 5 races, plus silverstone, had it as prime. India had it as option.

It's hard to distinguish it from the Medium Compound (White).

Luckily the two never appear at the same track together, so you don't need to :)
