Pirelli has revealed its tyre nominations for the final four races of the season - including the revived Mexican GP, where the soft and medium compounds will be used.
Fresh from its agreement to continue as F1's exclusive tyre supplier until 2019, Pirelli has confirmed it will bring the same respective tyre compounds to the United States, Brazilian and Abu Dhabi races as last year.
Meanwhile, the Mexican GP, which takes place the week after the US race in Austin on November 1, has returned to the calendar for the first time since 1992. The Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez has been heavily revamped for the sport's return and Pirelli says simulation data has shown that the soft and medium tyres are the best choice for the 4.3km circuit.
The medium and soft compounds will also be used in Austin and Brazil, with the soft and supersoft to then be taken to the season-finale in Abu Dhabi.
Pirelli's final 2015 tyre choices:
United States: Soft and medium
Mexico: Soft and medium
Brazil: Soft and medium
Abu Dhabi: Supersoft and soft
