Slippery When Wet
07 October 2024 by Craig G
These are very very good in dry weather. They're treacherous in wet weather though. Bought for a day at Brands Hatch (ST765RS), to replace a rear that picked up a puncture the previous week.
it rained on the day & they were slipping all over track, giving no confidence at all - there were several crashes involving Supercorsa's in the wet on the day (luckily not me, but only thanks to the bikes electronics).
These are good tyres - but for definitely fair weather only.

Manufacturer
Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3 - 180/55 17 (73W)
- WSBK derived structure and materials
- New tread pattern provides better wear, grip and performance consistency
- Optimised contact patch area which ensures grip when leaning at high angles
Original Equipment on the Ducati Panigale, the new SP Version 2 Diablo Supercorsa features the same tread design used in the 2012 World Superstock 1000 championship. High modulus fibre carcass offers a lower deformation ratio and makes the entire structure stiffer to allow a better synergy between compounds and tire carcass. Single Element Tread Pattern permits a 24% larger slick shoulder area (vs. previous Diablo Supercorsa), increasing contact area and grip and wear regularity. New compounds offer great balance of mileage and grip in an ultra-high-performance product. Rear tire uses Pirelli's patented EPT (enhanced patch technology) matched with a tri-zone compound that helps optimize the contact patch for improved grip and handling.
