Dunlop tyres to grip new Pro Honda CBR600RR Cup by Improve

Dunlop has been chosen as the exclusive tyre supplier and partner to the brand-new Pro Honda CBR600RR Cup by Improve, a one-make series launching next year on the support package to the Dunlop Campionato Italiano Velocità (CIV).

Riders in the new one-make Honda supersport series will benefit from the same expertise and tyres that Dunlop provides to all riders in CIV, racing on some of Italy’s top circuits.

Dunlop will supply one front and two rear tire options from its KR range of racing slicks; the same tyres trusted by riders in CIV and other top series like the FIM Endurance World Championship.

Wim Van Achter, motorsport manager Europe, Dunlop said: “We’re excited to be part of the new Pro Honda CBR600RR Cup by Improve, which is a great addition after Dunlop became the exclusive tyre supplier to CIV at the start of this season.

“The philosophy behind this series is admirable, and we’re pleased to offer incentives and support to help keep riders’ and teams’ costs down. The result will be thrilling one-make battles on some of Italy’s best race tracks.”
