The standard rear SC0, which debuted right here in Silverstone in 2025, sets the new Moto2™ record“The choice of compounds for this In Moto2™Grand Prix was clear since Friday morning, with all riders going for the soft SC1 front and SC0 rear combo in FP1, and then keeping it for all subsequent sessions.
Particularly significant is the result achieved by the standard SC0 rear, which, after making its debut at this circuit in 2025 as the E0125 development specification, contributed to this year’s new all-time Moto2™ lap record set by Guevara, more than six tenths faster than the previous record achieved last year by Gonzalez.
In Moto3™, the picture is more open and all compounds could potentially be used, as proven by the riders’ choices in qualifying.
Ogden came very close to the lap record in qualifying with soft SC1 both front and rear, although the medium SC2 has proved to be the most balanced solution in terms of wear, and we believe it will be the most popular choice on the grid tomorrow.
So far, temperatures have remained relatively mild, and even though they are expected to be slightly hotter tomorrow, we do not expect any significant impact on the tyre’s behaviour or performance”.
