Performance Analysis

Fulda SportControl 2 - Official Image

The Fulda SportControl 2 delivers middling overall performance with clear strengths in aquaplaning resistance, rolling efficiency, and generally competitive dry braking for its class, but it struggles for consistency in wet braking and dynamic wet handling. Across 15 summer tests it averages 10.8th, with several mid-pack finishes and few standout podiums. Notable highs include top-tier aquaplaning results and class-leading rolling resistance in demanding tests, while lows are driven by frequent double-digit deficits in wet braking versus the best and occasional poor showings in large shootouts.
