We’re testing the new Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa V4 SP today on BMW’s 209bhp S1000RR and 213bhp Ducati Panigale V4 S at Pergusa in Sicily. It’s a three-mile circuit littered with chicanes and high speed Thruxton-like turns that pushes tyre grip and stability to the limit.
PROS & CONS
Pros: More grip and better feel than previous generation Gives you good confidence Stable at full lean
Cons: Cons Not great in wet conditions Don't last as long as they could
