Pirelli supplied soft and medium compound tires for both axles to Moto2 and Moto3 riders at the Tissot Grand Prix of The Netherlands , which took place on June 26-28 at TT Circuit Assen.
With high temperatures experienced and a heatwave affecting much of Europe, Pirelli said the softer compounds would deliver greater grip levels to compensate for reduced asphalt performance in the heat. It anticipated ahead of the weekend that the rear soft tires – the SC0 for Moto2 and SC1 for Moto3 – would be the preferred choice across the weekend, including in the races themselves.
