Its climax is at the 24 hours of Le Mans in June 2021, a race which Goodyear-equipped cars have won outright on 14 occasions.<\/p>\n<p>The LMP2 official tyre partnership with ELMS will then begin in April 2021. In ELMS, the LMP2 category is the top tier of a multiclass championship that races at six of Europe\u2019s top circuits. The partnership means that all LMP2 entrants in the 2021 24 Hours of Le Mans, including cars from outside of WEC and ELMS, will benefit from the latest developments in Goodyear Racing tyres. In addition, Goodyear will also increase its brand visibility on and off track to support its launch of the latest range of Eagle F1 SuperSport tyres, featuring motorsport-derived technology.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Rytokoski, VP and chief marketing officer, consumer EMEA at Goodyear said: \u201cGoodyear has a long and remarkable history in motorsport. In addition to our unbeaten record in Formula One with 368 Grand Prix wins, we have 14 overall wins in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This partnership allows us to showcase our technology, durability and performance in the most famous endurance race in the world. We are proud to have been chosen for this challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Automobile Club de l\u2019Ouest (ACO) has chosen Goodyear as official tyre supplier to the LMP2 category of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and European Le Mans Series (ELMS).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":104,"featured_media":25535,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[57,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25534","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-goodyear","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
