Motorsport in the UK came back relatively quickly after its pandemic enforced hiatus in the second and third quarters of 2020. Covid-19 is still causing plenty of disruption to global series and events though. While motorsport is generally well set up to adapt to relatively Covid-safe conditions - outside, set over a large area, plenty of room for attendees to distance - logistical issues continue to provide a big headache to those events going ahead (and a step too far for those cancelled). That said, tyre suppliers have been successfully adapting to continue to innovate products within the sporting laboratory; for example, Pirelli has readied one of the biggest changes to Formula 1's tyres in recent memory, with the much-anticipated 18" tyre replacing the current 13" model in 2022. On the marketing side, the biggest tyre brands have continued to pursue e-sports partnerships, the potential of which was revealed further than ever by the pandemic year.
