Motogp Tire Technology – From the first race of the 2014 season, Bridgestone will use a new color coding system for its MotoGP™ tires to make it easier for spectators to see which front and rear tire options each rider is using at a given time. brings
The change to the tire marking system was made in response to Factory and open class machines having access to different rear options during a race weekend. The old marking system marked the optional softer tire with a white line in every race, regardless of the compound of that tire. The new system means that each of the four lightweight tire components – Ultra-Soft, Soft, Medium and Hard – will have its own specific color for the entire racing season.

This change will make it easier for spectators to differentiate between Factory and open class tire allocations, and also to differentiate the different front and rear tire combinations available to riders during a race weekend.
Bridgestone Previews Its Final Race As Motogp Tire Supplier
As only two wet tire options will be offered for each MotoGP round; wet tires will still adopt the previous marking system with a simple, black stripe indicating the harder option, while the soft option will be marked with a white line.
“The new tire marking scheme has been designed to make it easier for spectators to see which tire compound each rider is using on the front and back of the bike. Prior to last year when the entire grid was on the same tire compounds, our old marking system was works perfectly. Since the introduction of CRT class, and now the grid is divided between Fabric and open class machines, we decided to change the marking system accordingly. Last year, when our marking system used white line to indicate the softer option for each class, the viewer needed to know if a rider was a Factory or CRT bike to know which component was used. Now, even our viewers don’t need to tell the difference between a Factory and Open class bike know, by matching different colors to each of our tire components they will be able to tell the right tire choice for each rider.
“We also have to consider that the growing popularity of MotoGP means that more and more new fans are watching the races, and we feel that this new system will make it easier to understand the choice of riders’ tires and add an extra dimension to MotoGP coverage. “

What’s Up With Michelin’s Motogp Tyres? Part 2
A press release is not an article written by staff. When a post is marked with the words “press release”, it means that it is not responsible for its content and does not guarantee that it is correct. Not all press releases are submitted and we may reject press releases if the content is too heavy on commercial promotion and has little or no news value or if the press release contains obvious errors. It will now be fully automatic from the Catalan GP onwards, as unanimously agreed with the manufacturers and the Manufacturers Association (MSMA).
From now on, all bikes will have their tire pressures monitored live, and checks will only be carried out on machines the system deems to be non-compliant. As always, it is important to check that the sensors are properly calibrated and that they give the same readings as those shown by the automatic monitoring system.
If the sensors are found to be working correctly and the pressures do not match, there will be penalties. Technical violations usually result in disqualification from the session or race, but as the system is new to the ™ Class and it is being rolled out mid-season, the Stewards have agreed a progressive penalty scale until further notice. To ensure that the penalties are applied to the actual Sprint or Grand Prix race where the tire pressure did not occur, they will be the time penalties given after the race on the following scale:
It is a new tire pressure monitoring system designed to ensure that all ™ machines comply with the pressures established by the ™ Official Tire Supplier, Michelin. Tire pressure is a very sensitive value and the reading varies greatly during the race, and even at different points of the circuit. Previously, teams used their own sensors from different suppliers to check tire pressure. Now there is one unified system for the web ™.
Bridgestone Introduces New Motogp Tire Color Coding For Spectators
The system agreed with the manufacturers is that in a Sprint or a race a minimum percentage of laps must be above a certain pressure. Minimum pressure varies from front to rear tire, and may vary from some circuits to others. These are the percentages:
However, there is a minimum tire pressure in the Moto2™ and Moto3™ classes, and in the FIM Enel MotoE™ World Championship.
It is not determined at this first stage. It only applies to the Tissot Sprint and Grand Prix™ races. Michelin has completed three MotoGP™ pre-season tests and now the French tire company is eyeing the first race of the year at Losail in Qatar later this month. which will introduce many rule changes and new technologies.
Following Michelin’s reintroduction of MotoGP in 2016 after a seven-year absence, Clermont Ferrand’s tire experts gathered important data from its first year behind the wheel and this led to a new MICHELIN Power Slick front profile. to be promoted for next season. This tire was first used as a prototype at the final race of 2016 in Valencia with impressive results, and the information gathered from that event allowed Michelin technicians to work on the tire during the winter, and in pre-tests season, to create a version that the riders were very impressed with. This, combined with a rear tire that provides more traction and allows riders to get a better ride, shows that Michelin is moving forward with constant innovation as it strives to continuously create the best racing tires for MotoGP.
Motogp, Luca Marini Steps Up To The Plate: “tire Pressure Is A Question Of Safety”
These latest tires won’t be the only first round changes, as a rule change will see Michelin offer three wetted tire specifications for both front and rear wheels – two was the minimum requirement in 2016. This will give riders greater scope for tire choices and will hopefully lead to more choices and continue with different riders using different tires and create a competitive effect within the tire rule. Another change will see the middle tires no longer used. The company’s development of MICHELIN Power Rain tires – which saw the tough compound show good durability in dry conditions – has led to the decision to remove the intermediates from this year’s classification. Another rule change will also see the two riders who qualify for QP2, after passing QP1, be given extra soft rear tires to use the softest compound in the second race session if they choose to. .
One of the biggest changes for 2017 will see the introduction of the ‘Tear Detection System’. This will work using wireless technology and will help identify which beam each rider is using. The system will work with any bike that has a Tire Air Pressure Sensor (TAPS) installed with a unique ID. All tires will then have a unique barcode which will be compared to TAPS via tracking, confirming which tire is fitted to which bike. A transmitter in TAPS emits a signal which is then read by the bike’s transponder and the unique ID is then transmitted and received by the clock receivers around the bike, this is then immediately reported to the organizer. Dorna will then be provided directly by Dorna to the television companies/timetables for broadcast, so viewers will know immediately which tire each rider is using. This will allow minute-by-minute information to be available and will work alongside the visual identification of the colored bands on each tyre.
Michelin is excited about the changes as the new season approaches and is determined to push the development of its MotoGP tires to new heights as it aims to give the racers the tires they need to compete for the fans. provide excitement and competition in the 18th race. to destroy
“We had three successful tests and confirmed the direction we are taking with the tires for the 2017 season. We introduced the new front profile tire in Valencia and it worked very well, now after three tests the riders are getting some very good and useful feedback. data, so we know we are going in the right direction for their needs. We also listened to their requests for more traction from the rear – because every rider always wants to go faster and go faster – so we worked on it and believe we have it again
