Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 Connect is designed specifically for Ultra High Performance cars. The new Cup 2 Connect differs to the original Cup 2 by introducing a new level of functionality with the ability to be fitted with Michelin’s Track Connect sensors that can relay real-time tyre data. Through these sensors, the Michelin Track Connect system is able to analyse the data being collected by the embedded sensors in the tyre itself and recommend a specific ideal pressure to improve grip levels and tread consistency before you hit the track. This functionality has been designed for on-track driving, but the Cup 2 Connect tyre is also fully road legal, having been developed with Michelin’s latest compound technology. The bi-compound tech across the tyre face has been designed to provide maximum grip in dry conditions when cornering, without compromising on precision and control. Wet weather performance has also been improved – while reinforced tyre shoulders have been designed to reduce excess wear from both rough roads and high-grip track surfaces.
