Harder, better, faster, stronger Dunlop Moto 2 and 3 tyres 'more versatile' than in previous years

摘要

Dunlop Motorsport has used the Moto 2 and 3 mid-season break to examine the changes brought about by its 2014 tyre philosophy. The manufacturer's 2013 rubber provided more opportunities for riders to make choices about the tyres that suited them best at a particular circuit, Dunlop's tyre selections this year have led to very little variation in the top riders' decisions. Clinton Howe, Dunlop's operations manager, Motorcycle Grand Prix, explains that the manufacturer has been able to develop tyres that are harder - and therefore last longer -and more versatile without compromising on pace.
