Pirelli looking for 2021 F1 test car

Feb.20 Pirelli is on the lookout for a F1 test car. The Italian company has secured the contract to remain in F1 beyond 2021, when the rim profile will go from 13 to 18 inches.

"The basis will be a car from 2018 but with adapted suspension and aerodynamics to be representative of what we can expect in 2021," he said.
