Preparing for an entry into the World Rally Championship coming off the back of the COVID-hit 2020 season would have been a tough ask for anyone, but especially so for returning exclusive tire supplier, Pirelli.
With so much relying on the performance and selection of tires in the modern-day WRC, there has been little rest for the brand. But given there was such a short gap between the Monza Rally at the backend of 2020 and the start of the new season on the Monte Carlo in January, Pirelli has enjoyed a largely successful return to the top flight.
DirtFish caught up with Pirelli’s motorsport boss, Terenzio Testoni, to find out how the company itself rates its performance so far this year.
