Wazzup Pilipinas!
Wales Rally GB, the final round of the 2013 FIA World Rally Championship, lived up to its reputation as one of the most complex events of the season. The mud and extremely slippery Welsh forest tracks proved a gruelling test for the drivers, but the soft-compound Michelin Latitude Cross S3 enabled them to produce some outstanding performances and put on an exciting show for spectators.
This is an event that traditionally throws rain, wind, fog and sometimes even snow at competitors, but this year’s weather conditions proved less delicate than expected. Even so, the sky remained threatening and the temperatures were chilly throughout, and the absence of rain had a direct influence on team strategies since the crews had to contend with big differences in the amount of grip they encountered compared to what they had come across during their rainy recce earlier in the week. More difficult still was the thin layer of mud that coated the rocky base and made it as slippery as if it were covered in a layer of wet moss.
Despite these unpredictable and constantly shifting conditions, the crews were able to count on the consistency, performance and grip of their Michelin Latitude Cross S3 tyres.
