Time: Dec 27th 2016 Copy editor: Tyrefull
MotoGP, in collaboration of Michelin, will implement a new system that enable automatic detection of the tyres that that riders are using and to make that information available to all riders and teams as well as to the TV broadcasters.
The tyre detection is made by means of wireless technology. The information is then fed to the unified ECU and routed to the track timing system which reports via an updated version of the unified software.
Tyre Allocations
To address the issue of a perceived disadvantage affecting riders who progress from QP1 to QP2, the two riders involved will now be able to choose an additional soft specification rear slick tyre. The total number of tyres available to such riders remains unchanged.
Addendum – Tyre Allocations
In the information released concerning decisions of the Grand Prix Commission in Madrid held on 2nd “ December it was stated that the maximum number of wet and dry track tyres remains unchanged. This was incorrect. The maximum number of wet weather tyres has been changed to five front and six rear. (Race Direction can still approve an additional allocation of one extra front and rear tyres when all free practice and qualifying is held in wet conditions),” said MotoGp.
