Michelin tyres are excited about this new revolutionary form of motorsport and will be using their Michelin Pilot Sport EV tyre for all the events on the 2015 calendar

Malcolm Scovell, commercial director for Michelin in the UK and Ireland, said, “Formula E is a really exciting partnership for us and it fits perfectly with our track-to-street ethos and our commitment to sustainability. The 18-inch tyres mean that the things we learn from Formula E will directly influence the development of our tyres for normal electric and performance cars”.

These were developed with the express purpose of ensuring safe driving in temperatures lower than 7 degrees Celsius, as well as in harsh situations such as snow and ice.

Deeper and more pronounced notches than summer tyres are a distinctive feature of the tread pattern of winter tyres. This makes winter tyres more effective at providing traction on snow and ice.

Additionally, they are constructed from a material that is more pliable, which enables them to maintain a level of pliability that allows them to maintain a firm hold on the road even when temperatures are below freezing.

“In addition, there are no slicks and wets,

so the Pilot Sport EVs will have to perform in a wide range of conditions, just as the tyres on our own cars have to. Michelin uses motor sport as an innovation accelerator, and Formula E is already delivering on that front.”
