Goodyear Eagle racing tyres impressed drivers with their versatility and longevity in two highly competitive classes in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Running with high performance and durability day and night, Goodyear states the Eagle tyres were consistently capable of surpassing drivers’ maximum drive time limits. The company said the technological innovation demonstrated by the tyres underlines that the LMGT3 class is the next chapter in Goodyear’s legacy in international racing. Goodyear supplied all 24 LMGT3 and 17 LMP2 cars, meaning Goodyear’s operation included 100 staff members, including tyre fitters, track support engineers for each team, administrative and marketing staff, at Le Mans. Goodyear brought 8,000 tyres to the track, with the footprint minimised through the provision of one slick and one rain specification for each class. Goodyear also flew the Blimp, continuing its 100th anniversary celebration, over the circuit, and contributed a fanzone, completing a holistic approach to the race weekend.
