Bridgestone is set to celebrate its 200th race as a tyre supplier in Formula 1 at the European Grand Prix in Valencia this weekend.

The Japanese firm’s Potenza tyres have made an appearance at every race since the 1997 Australian Grand Prix and it was the sole tyre supplier in 1999, 2000 and since 2007.

Bridgestone director of tyre development Hirohide Hamashima said that Valencia was a fitting venue for the team to celebrate its milestone race.

"When we entered Formula 1 in 1997 all of the circuits were new to us with F1 cars so it is fitting that we should celebrate our 200th race with a new track,” he said.
