You can't test 'F1 tyres' on an Auto GP car, Pirelli can't event do a meaningful test on anything that isn't a current F1, as we saw this year.

Looks like they managed to get more dry weather testing done than Pirelli have managed all season. Someone ought to let them know that this just isn't how things are done in F1.

I'm sure peppering that article with "OMG Kumho! Kumho! F1! F1! F1!!!!" will prove a fruitful exercise in e-marketing.

I thought Pirelli had a multi year contract for F1. There must be a link with all the recent speculation.

So these are tyres that kumho believes comply with current F1 regulations, and that they will be used in AutoGP. This was the first speed test on AutoGP cars?
