I am amazed by the stability of this tire\u2019s performance. Even after the evaluation tests, I felt that the tires still had enough power to continue running. In conclusion, we believe it is a tire that can be run without any problems even when assuming the actual number of laps in a race.<\/p>\n<p>Ishiura: Actually, I felt that the warm-up and low-speed corner grip were both better when compared to the tires used presently, and I also felt that the tires were able to produce better one-shot lap times than ever before. I think these new renewable material tires will have no problem as regular tires for next year&#8217;s Super Formula Championship.<\/p>\n<p>\u25a0Next, the final specifications for the WET tires will be determined under wet conditions at the November test. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"GallerySliderContenet\" >\n<div class=\"GalleryIn\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ms_22_sf_news_06_ph_01.jpg\" width=\"100%\" alt=\"[Photo]\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">Sustainable Materials Racing Tires Development Report<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"GalleryIn\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ms_22_sf_news_06_ph_02.jpg\" width=\"100%\" alt=\"[Photo]\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">Sustainable Materials Racing Tires Development Report<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"GalleryIn\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ms_22_sf_news_06_ph_03.jpg\" width=\"100%\" alt=\"[Photo]\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">Sustainable Materials Racing Tires Development Report<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tableDesign\" style=\"margin-top: 60px;\">\n<h3 class=\"styled_h2\">LINK<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/2022ms\/sf\/\">SUPER FORMULA Index<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/2022ms\/sf\/ms_22_sf_overview\/\">Category Outline<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/superformula.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">[LINK] Official Website<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"HOME Motorsports 2022 Motorsports 2022 SUPER FORMULA [Vol.6] Sustainable Materials Racing Tires Development Re [&hellip;]","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2229,"parent":93,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2249","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2249"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2249\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2250,"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2249\/revisions\/2250"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/93"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2229"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.y-yokohama.com\/cp\/global\/motorsports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
