| I should point out that the Diablo’s I used had already seen some use (3 race days) and part of the 3.5 seconds difference can probably be attributed to the Rossos having new sharp edges to the cut tread.
Not only did the Rossos warm up quicker than any of the other tyres, but under identical conditions with it still raining for the same lap times the temperature on returning to the paddock was 10 degrees C above that of the H rated Diablos and was the only set where I measured a higher front temperature than rear.
As well as my tyre testing Ady was out on Trouty’s old bike using Rossos and in the dry line session at the end of the day was lapping mainly in the 1m 06s bracket with the odd 1m 05s lap chucked in for good measure. He stuck with the Rossos all day and didn’t use warmers
