How will the F1 teams tackle the Australian Grand Prix 2020
With regard to the tire allocation for the Australian Grand Prix 2020, there are plenty of interesting strategies. This season, the teams opted to run the 2019-specification tires. Apparently, when they tested the 2020 spec tires last year, they unanimously rejected the treads. In other words, Pirelli’s C2, C3 and C4 tire range will resemble last year’s options.
Over the past month, the world has been plagued with the coronavirus pandemic threat. However, it appears that the Australian Grand Prix 2020 will go off without a hitch. Already, the Chinese Grand Prix has been postponed because the country was the source of the virus.

According to the latest news, the Bahrain Grand Prix will also run behind closed doors, and will be a televised event. Coming back to Australia though, both the FIA and local authorities were determined to green light the race. The fans have already spent a lot of money on tickets, and closing the doors on them would be an utter travesty.
Luckily, the authorities have been taking extra precautions for people entering the country. This is largely with regard to foreigners flying in from Italy, which is the second most affected country.
