The FIA has extended its tire supplier agreement with Pirelli for the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. The agreement continues Pirelli's role as the sole tire supplier for the series until 2028.

The activated clause was included in the contract signed between Pirelli, the FIA and Formula 1 in 2023, when the Italian company extended its presence in the series for 2025–2027, and it provided for the possibility of prolonging the collaboration for an additional season.

Additionally, Pirelli will therefore remain the exclusive tire supplier for the FIA Formula 2 Championship and the FIA Formula 3 Championship until the end of the 2028 season.

"Pirelli has been an important partner to the FIA Formula One World Championship for many years, providing a consistently high standard of performance, innovation and safety at the highest level of our sport," said FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem. "This extension through to the end of 2028 provides stability for the championship and reflects the strong collaboration between the FIA, Formula One Group and Pirelli. Together, we continue to drive innovation and support the delivery of exciting racing for competitors, teams and fans around the world."

"We are pleased to extend our presence in Formula 1 by a further year, until 2028, thanks to the agreement reached with the FIA––under the leadership of its President Mohammed Ben Sulayem––and with Formula 1. Last year, we surpassed the milestone of 500 Grands Prix, taking on and winning significant technological and innovation challenges throughout our long involvement," Executive Vice Chairman of Pirelli Marco Tronchetti Provera. "Pirelli is not just a supplier but instead a strategic partner that has been able to support the constant growth of the championship, driven by the joint work of the Federation and the promoter. Formula 1 represents the best laboratory for us to innovate, test cutting-edge technical solutions and continually improve research and development processes, for the benefit of tomorrow's road tires."
