Next week Formula 1 teams will be back in action at Jerez in the South of Spain. Bridgestone will supply every team with three sets of slick tyres to test with these tyres. Slicks might be introduced again in Formula One as soon as 2009.
A Bridgestone spokesperson told GPUpdate.net: "Bridgestone are supplying these slicks as a response to a request from the teams, as the teams want to gain data as they look to the 2009 season. It is too early for Bridgestone to comment on our tyre range for the 2009 season, however we are always available to discuss ideas with the teams and the FIA."
