A new version of the SCQ tyre will be used at this weekend’s Misano WorldSBK.
Pirelli has introduced a new developmental version of its SCQ tyre for the Misano WorldSBK, debuting at the Emilia-Romagna Round as the E0479 option. This marks the third development tyre brought by Pirelli to World Superbike this season, following the E0125 and E0126 options. The E0479 aims to enhance the contact patch of the SCQ tyre through a new construction, while retaining the same compound as the standard SCQ, offering improved grip, stability, and consistent performance. Pirelli’s confidence in the E0479 is evident as the standard SCQ tyre is not included in this weekend’s allocation. Additionally, the E0126 version of the SCX tyre will be available on the rear, alongside the standard SC0 option. Pirelli continues its development work on the extrasoft E0479, focusing on maximizing performance for the flying lap and the 10-lap Superpole Race.
