We have solid experience at COTA, but this year’s partial resurfacing and the varying grip levels across different sections of the circuit introduce new parameters to consider. We know the asphalt offers a medium level of aggressiveness, and despite the recent work, the track still presents some irregularities. That’s why we’ve adapted our tire allocation accordingly, while maintaining the same overall balance in terms of stiffness. We’ve opted to keep a symmetrical front tire, as the circuit places significant demands on the front without causing excessive wear on one particular side. In contrast, the rear tire features a reinforced right side to better withstand the specific stresses imposed by COTA. Last year, our partners set multiple records on this track, and we’re confident that this year’s allocation will once again provide them with optimal conditions to perform at the highest level.
