http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/91728 World champion Sebastian Vettel says Pirelli's super soft tyres are working well, despite fears that they could degrade too fast in Monaco.
The softest of all the compounds raced by Pirelli so far is making its grand prix debut this weekend, and there were concerns that they would degrade too quickly.
Vettel, however, completed 23 laps with them in the second Friday practice at Monte Carlo, and admitted they were lasting well.
"I think not bad, it's been positive so far," said Vettel, fifth quickest today, of the tyres. "Both tyres are working and that is most important thing, and lasting pretty well.
"We will see how the conditions are on Sunday. If it's similar to today then the super soft seems to be preferred tyre for qualifying. You can extract most time from it, so no dramas today."
