-----------------

As usual, Bridgestone issued their customary post-race press release after the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, giving their view of the weekend's racing. In this press release, Shinji Aoki discusses bringing an extra soft front tire to Silverstone, and the effect which the combination of very high average speeds and colder than expected tire temperatures have. The press release appears below:

British MotoGP™ debrief with Shinji Aoki
Tuesday, September 2 2014

Bridgestone slick compounds available: Front: Extra-soft, Soft & Medium; Rear: Soft, Medium & Hard (Asymmetric)
Bridgestone wet tyre compounds available: Soft (Main), Hard (Alternative)

Repsol Honda’s Marc Marquez won a thrilling battle with Movistar Yamaha MotoGP’s Jorge Lorenzo at last Sunday’s British Grand Prix at Silverstone, the pair finishing first and second respectively with just 0.732 seconds between them, ahead of Valentino Rossi in third place on the other factory Yamaha M1.

After a chilly start to the race weekend conditions for Sunday’s race were relatively warm, with a peak track temperature of 34°C recorded at the start of the twenty-lap contest. The warmer weather created good conditions for Marquez and Lorenzo to set a fierce pace at the front of the field, with the winner Marquez recording the fastest ever total race time for a rider at a MotoGP™ race at Silverstone.
