The Grand Prize of France held this weekend at le Mans and Bridgestone will be the Gaul of circuit one new compound rear, an asymmetric soft, which developed last winter and again at Motegi.
The choice of tires for the France is very clear: compounds, soft and medium-sized two wheels, with the asymmetric rear tire behind. It is the first time that Bridgestone will provide this type of tyre, which was originally intended for Motegi, but postponement of the Grand Prize of the Japan to the month of October, became Le Mans the scenario for its creation. Bridgestone this new tyre its excellent grip, your best highlights the warming and gives better results for the conditions of le Mans, where it is assumed a colder temperature.
"Le Mans is a circuit which slides a lot, and we are at an early date, the temperature is low, so I need a composed of soft tires provide grip and this is the reason why we will use the new back asymmetric pneumatic soft of France.". We develop a mild extra compound we use late last year in Valencia and the Portugal, but during the winter, we have incorporated a completely new asymmetric soft compound. "Is designed to operate when conditions are cooler and obtain more rapid warming, offering the best pilots of sensations in the early stages of use", says Hirohide Hamashima, Deputy Director of the Department of development of the Division of the tyres.
Hamashima underlined by characteristics of the circuit, "this is the type of brake and speed, except for the final part which is high speed, inclinations are relatively low, but it is crucial good stability in braking, especially in curves 3 and 9" which is reached after two straight. "The circuit has an asymmetric pattern, so the tire requires a right more hard, hence the choice by the asymmetric rubber rear", he explains.
