Performance Analysis

Giti GitiSportS2 - Official Image

GitiSportS2 shows a clear pattern: exceptional aquaplaning resistance and generally low noise/comfort with occasional efficiency strengths, but persistently weak braking and handling grip on both dry and wet surfaces. Across nine summer tests it rarely threatens the leaders overall (avg pos 13.6), with multiple bottom-tier results in braking and dynamic wet/dry handling offset by repeated wins or podiums in straight and curved aquaplaning. Value/wear outcomes are often poor, further limiting overall standings despite standout safety margins in deep water.
