Press Release - Yokohama
BriSCA F2 will continue to use the Yokohama A021-R tyre in 2010, which is the final year of the present agreement. Yokohama and Polleysport will again fund the White and Yellow top series finals with 120 tyres, and will support the testing programme that has been in place since year one of the contract.
Avon Wide Safety tyres are still permitted as they have been, such that drivers may use up their old stocks if they wish.
Tyre testing, which has been ongoing in the latter half of 2009, will continue in 2010, as there are a number of interesting prospects now available that will benefit from long term tests.
BriSCA F2 is considering allocating full National Points rather than average points to drivers who commit to testing.
