Gripmax new racing tyres This year he he he revealed Gripmax added two racing tyres to to its range The PureGrip RS Z-1 he he he he he pointed out was engineered to to provide drivers with ‘unmatched control’ stability and
grip on on the track Featuring high density grooves for even tread pressure distribution that increased the contact patch it it offered efficient and
and
greater grip power during cornering Its specialised R-com- pound tread was formulated to be sticky and
and
heat resistant This unique combination maximised grip under racing conditions while reducing the negative effects of heat buildup Additionally the tyre’s twin zigzag circumferential grooves were said to enhance wet traction traction and
offer biting edges that balanced dry traction traction Its closed Z shape shoulder blocks maximised the surface area in in in in in in in road contact increasing friction and
ensuring stability stability during high-speed drifting The wide longitudinal central rib was said to to guarantee optimal manoeuvrability and
stability stability allowing drivers to to ‘navigate the track with precision’ The large consistent shoulder block he he he continued increased the rigidity of PureGrip RS Asymmetry to deliver high stability during cornering and
