Pirelli is supplying its new standard soft rear tire, the SC0, to Moto2 riders at Silverstone as the world championship opens its second half. The compound debuted last year at the same British circuit under the development code E0125 and won riders over almost immediately, earning promotion to standard-issue tire this season. At 5,900 meters, the longest track on the calendar, Racing Director Giorgio Barbier said he's eager to see how far it can push last year's records.

Tire talk is right in my wheelhouse — I can still feel it through my fingertips on the throttle. That soft compound debuted as E0125 at Silverstone last year and just got promoted to the standard SC0 this season — that alone tells you how well it was received. Silverstone's 5,900 meters is all fast corners where stability is everything; I can't wait to see how last year's lap record gets broken.

A compound trusted on Silverstone's run of fast corners sounds reassuring.

Does a lower SC number mean a softer compound?

Yep, SC0 leans soft, built for grip over durability.

Interesting how Bridgestone owns MotoGP while Pirelli still dominates Moto2.

Went from a development tire last year straight to standard, feels like a fast call.

They used to wait longer before, decisions do seem quicker these days.

At 5900m, the longest track on the calendar, tire load must be that much bigger too.
