Lets go ZR and they are available from anywhere. |
The problem with the ZR rated tyre is that Pirelli have specifically stated that the bikes are not heavy enought and dont have enough power to get them up to required operating temperatures and as such wont endorse them for the series.
That is not the case for the HR rated tyre.
This is important because it is the racers necks on the line with this and saftey is important.
Supply of the HR rated Rosso shouldn't be a problem next year, as I currently understand it.
Before anyone starts on it I am not aware of any good reason to move away from Pirelli tyres!
