Hankook says the specification of tyre currently used in FormulaE will remain the same for 2024 despite criticism from drivers. ⬇️
The South Korean manufacturer became the sole tyre supplier to the championship for 2023, replacing Michelin rubber which had been used since the inaugural season in 2014.
Despite the concerns, Hankook’s European motorsport director Manfred Sandbichler has confirmed that “next year’s season will be the same tyre” and is happy with the job the company has been doing in its first season of Formula E. “Think about what we are doing here now in Gen3 – we have a new car, we have everything new, so that means everybody has to learn.
“But as long as you deliver a safe product, a quick product and a product which shows the same performance from the first until the last lap I guess there’s nothing to complain [about] seriously. This is a driver’s job to complain.”
