All team to build mule cars for 18-inch tyre tests

Swapping to 18-inch tyres for the 2021 season, Pirelli was given a welcome boost with news that all 10 teams will build mule cars to help with the testing. Next season Formula 1 will swap to 18-inch tyres. Added to that the front tyres will be narrower, reduced from 305mm in width to 270mm, while the rear tyres will remain 405mm wide. Pirelli began testing the 2021 tyres out on track in September last year with Sergey Sirotkin running a modified mule car based on the 2018 Renault.
