Performance Analysis

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric - Official Image

Across 10 tests, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric delivers consistently strong wet-weather capability and balanced overall performance, averaging a 4.6 position with multiple podiums. It frequently excels in wet handling and grip, translating to high placements in mixed-condition evaluations.
However, results vary more in dry-focused tests, including one last-place finish when the assessment weighted dry grip and dry lap time heavily. Rolling resistance and noise are also noted drawbacks in at least one test cycle, indicating efficiency and refinement trade-offs versus class leaders.
