Diablo Rosso Corsa for the new Ducati 899 Panigale

Pirelli confirms its leadership in the top-of-the-range segment and the technological partnership with Ducati. Indeed, the new Ducati 899 Panigale, the 1199 Panigale’s younger sister, will use as original equipment fitment of Diablo Rosso Corsa tyres (sizes 120/70 ZR17 for front and 180/60 ZR17 for rear). Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa are the most versatile supersport tyres for road and track designed for both naked and faired motorcycles. Diablo Rosso Corsa range combines in a single product the three core elements of Pirelli racing tyres: Diablo, the prestigious brand that Pirelli is offering as undisputed benchmark in the motorcycle racing and hyper-sport tyres sector since the beginning of the new millennium; Rosso, as Pirelli Italian passion for motor cycle racing; Corsa, the noblest expression of the power of a tyres line of unquestioned performance. Diablo Rosso Corsa uses Pirelli EPT (Enhanced Patch Technology) patent based on the experience gained in WSBK, thus providing an excellent contact patch at every lean angle on track or road. Complete rider confidence and power delivery to the ground are therefore guaranteed under all conditions. Furthermore, the front and rear tread patterns embrace FGD (Functional Groove Design) technology, ensuring racing performance on track (close to that of a racing slick) and exceptional control in the wet.
