740PS and a whopping 690Nm of torque, these figures are certainly not for the faint hearted and putting all that power down is certainly not the job of any tyre. Exactly why Michelin developed the Pilot Super Sport, the world’s fastest series-produced tyre on the track. The Italian manufacturer, after its previous successful collaborations related to the development of the tyres for the 599 GTO and the FF, has once more chosen Michelin among the original equipment suppliers for the new F12 Berlinetta.
Due to the following technologies developed at its Research and Development Center, Michelin has designed tyres capable of handling the power and torque dished out by the Ferrari. Making the tyre what it is, is the Twaron Belt which is a high-density fibre which gives the Michelin Pilot Super Sport superior high-speed stability. A key feature of Twaron is that it is very strong, yet light, Twaron is five times stronger than steel of an equivalent weight.
And then there is the Variable contact patch 2.02. Although the patch’s shape changes when cornering, the amount of rubber in contact with the road remains the same with sure footed poise. To provide the best compromise between tyre life and grip the tyre features a Tri-compound and Bi-compound tread. Derived from the technologies developed and used in endurance racing, this innovation uses different rubber compounds on the left and right sides of the tread. On the outside, a unique elastomer specifically developed for racing tyres ensures exceptional endurance. On the inside, a latest-generation, high-grip elastomer enables the tyre (on wet surfaces) to break through the water’s surface and adhere to the road.
