When the tyre is down to about 3mm i think its time to change them. The risk for aquaplaning is 30% bigger when the tyre has been worn down to about 3mm. But in my country the law is to change when its worn down to 1.6mm.

Does F1 still use carbon brakes in the wet too?

[LightweightJackal]

@gsxrDoug they were saying that brakes aren't effective at all, the wheels lock instantly anyway.

[NBSV1]

@gsxrDoug Yes. They don't change the brakes for the wet. Just the tires. The brakes don't work as well in the wet, but you can't brake as hard anyway. Don't know what they do about not cracking the rotors and pads when they're hot and get hit with water.
