In a Formula-1 racing, dry and wet types of tyres are used for different purposes. There are dry tyres and wet tyres. In general, only dry tyres and wet tyres are used in a race track. Dry tyres, also called slicks tyres, are useful only in dry weather conditions. They are featured by a tread pattern that is devoid of channels. They generally appear in 4 compounds namely supersoft, soft, medium and hard. Unlike dry tyres, wet tyres designed for damp or slightly wet surfaces, as well as uncertain weather conditions.
