YOKOHAMA debut at Adria 24hrs race
04 Dec 2015

The Italian 24 hour race was held last weekend at the Adria International Raceway and had teams competing in Seat Ibiza SC, in a straight and intensive 24 hours test of endurance. The tyres of choice were YOKOHAMA ADVAN Neova AD08R which were fitted on all cars in sizes 215/45R17.

Yokohama Italia ended the “24 ore di Adria” with great satisfaction following the performance of the tyres in what is described by experts as a “very hard” race.

The ADVAN Neova AD08R guaranteed the grip and safety throughout, without any technical issues or problems demonstrating the high performance and the premium racing tyre. The great reliability of the Seat cars and YOKOHAMA’s tyres allowed also to lower the number of pit-stops in what was a real whirlwind of non-stop action motor racing.

The victory was achieved by Raton2 team, with drivers Tanca, Amici, Di Folco, D’Amico, Zampieri and Di Luca.

“We’re very satisfied in our participation to the “24 ore di Adria” and above all for the performance of our ADVAN Neova AD08R Tyres” stated Giuseppe Pezzaioli, Motorsport Manager of YOKOHAMA Italia. “The tyre model equipped for the 24 Ore di Adria wasn’t a pure racing tyre but it handled the competition in an excellent way” he concluded.
