Vallelunga Yokohama tyre test

By

SEAT, Alfa Romeo and BMW completed a tyre test with Yokohama recently at Vallelunga. As we reported earlier the first encounter with Yokohama for the WTCC teams were problem filled. FWD cars had severe problems with the tyres.

Yokohama seem to have solved some of the problems as SEAT were reported to be quickest at Vallelunga in form of Rickard Rydell. Though according to Sportautomoto Yokohama is still struggling to find one tyre that fits all cars. All three different car makes ran on different tyre compounds at Vallelunga.

1 Rickard Rydell SEAT Leon 1:43.30
2 Fabrizio Giovanardi Alfa Romeo 156 1:43.70
3 Dirk Muller BMW 320i E90 1:44.50
