Dunlop's 'evolving technologies' helping BTCC deliever exciting racing

摘要

Dunlop's 2016 MSA British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) tyre range has been developed to meet the championship's two major requirements. First, the two specifications of dry tyre in soft and medium compounds need to handle nine different tracks (as well as an additional hard compound for Thruxton's abrasive surface). And secondly, they need to handle the wide variety of temperatures across its ten rounds. 2015 SAW A LOW OF JUST four degrees centigrade on track at Brands Hatch in early April, with the same tyres coping with 30 degree heat in testing at Snetterton. Dunlop's three slick BTCC tyres must be capable of working at the extremes - working hard at both four degrees and 30 degrees.
