Pirelli to test 'robust' new-spec rear tyres next week

Formula 1's exclusive tyre provider Pirelli has announced that it will be testing a new specification of rear tyre compounds next week at the Red Bull Ring. The move is a response to the dramatic tyre failures suffered by Max Verstappen and Lance Stroll during the Azerbaijan Grand Prix earlier this month.
