Performance Analysis

Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport - Official Image

Across 15 summer-focused tests, the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport consistently excels in dynamic grip and handling, especially in the dry, delivering sharp steering and class-leading subjective control. It frequently places top three overall (avg. 3.3) with multiple wins/podiums, and often tops dry handling and subjective wet handling, indicating a performance-tuned UUHP bias. However, it regularly trails in efficiency, comfort and noise, and its objective wet braking/handling can fluctuate, particularly in larger UUHP sizes.
Overall, this tyre suits drivers prioritizing precision and track-leaning road performance. Expect excellent dry pace and confidence-inspiring balance, but accept higher rolling resistance, louder operation, firmer ride, and occasional wet braking deficits versus the very best.
