Michelin: “The majority of riders liked it. It took two or three laps to get the feeling, because the handling is different"
The revised tyre is designed to cope with extra loads generated by aerodynamics and ride-height devices, and help address temperature and pressure sensitivity when closely following other bikes.
“It's a new front design. New construction, new profile. And the aim for this tyre is to give more grip, better feedback and also be less sensitive to pressure and temperature variation. “The majority of riders liked it. It took two or three laps to get the feeling, because the handling of the tyre is different. And after that, they started to push and reported to us that the grip level was good. The feedback, stability, especially in the fast corners.
“But we’re very satisfied, because like I said, the base to start the work and to make modifications is good, and it worked on all the bikes without many changes on the setting. “I love it,” Bagnaia said. “Because it was something I was really needing. Because I'm a rider that uses a lot the brake for entry in the corner, and with this tyre it was working super good.”
