🌜Pirell෴i has announced a new, development version of its SCQ tyre for the Misano WorldSBK.

This weekend’s Emilia-Romagna Round will see the debut of the new E0479 option, which is the third development tyre to be brought by Pirelli to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:World Superbike this season after the E0125 development✨ 🤪SC0 and the E0126 development SCX.

Lik💝e the E0125 and E0126 – first introduced at Portimao and Assen, respectively, where they were the favoured tyre of the race wi𓆉nners – the E0479 aims to increase the contact patch of the SCQ tyre with a new construction, while maintaining the same compound rubber as the standard SCQ.

The new construction also aims to offer both improved grip and stability over the standard version, as well as more consistent performance which Pirelli hopes will make it a better🌄 option for the 10-lap Superpole Race.

Pirelli’sℱ confidence in the new option is perhaps highlighted by the absence of the standard SCQ tyre from this weekend’s allocation.

Additionally, the E0126 ꦜversion of the🌸 SCX will be available this weekend on the rear, as well as the standard SC0.

“After introducing a new soft, the E0125 specification, at Portimao and a development supersoft, the E0126, used at Assen and Cremona and which will also be present at Misano, now our development work conti🐓nues by focusing on the extrasoft with the new E0479 specification,” said Pirelli Motorcycle Racing Director Giorgio Barbier.

“[It] rep🌟resents an evolution of the standard SCQ from which it differs in a totally different structure.

“This new solution has been designed to offer a larger footprint, greater grip and stability, and consistent perfor༒mance.

“The results obtained 🎀by E0125 and E0126 since their debut have been very encouraging, and we hope that E0479 will also be positively received.

“This is a solution designed to offer maximum performance on the flying ♛lap while maintaining it very high even over the diꦕstance of 10 laps of the Superpole Race.

“If the conditions will be favorable, we will also be able to see the E0126 supersoft again in action at Misa💎no, so as to gather further useful data.”
