06 March 2010 @ 11:32 GMT - Max Loop Bridgestone's Director of Motorsport Tyre Development Hirohide Hamashima says the new tyres are performing in line with their predictions. The Japanese manufacturer tested all four compounds at the last test in Barcelona. "All four compounds were tested here in Barcelona. Considering the temperatures because of the time of year, we have seen performance in line with our predictions," he said. He says the test was a good validation of the work the development engineers have done. "This week has been a good validation of the good work of our development engineers in Japan. The super soft is a bit too soft for this severe circuit, but there have been good test results with this tyre here. The soft tyre was used for the majority of running, and we've seen some very long runs with this tyre as teams evaluate strategy options for the latest rules. The medium and hard compounds have also given good results," he explained. |
