(One for the tyre geeks)

Not got time to watch it myself right now but I expect we can all guess the result(?)

Great review, that one. Looks like Bridgestone pulled their usual trick - too hard and needs heat to work. Unsuitable for cold wet conditions.  Sigh......oh well.

Goodyear F1 AS5 for me when my PS4 are shot.

Slightly obscure comment: Has he got Rylan's teeth?

That is a cracking video actually.... I love his dedication to testing! Man after my own heart!

What is interesting is that there isn't actually a "right" choice....which is where I've been at with tyres for a long old time. He says, they are all compromise. Spot on!

The Bridgestone was good in the wet, it just needed a bit of warming up. PS4S seems to have the same wooly feel as the PS4 which is disappointing. Goodyear looks to be the best of the bunch.

Yes, agree, I think the Goodyear is probably the pick for my preferences.

Despite otherwise sounding good, I'm leary of the new B'stone's need for heat to perform. Needing heat on the racetrack to me means they would lack grip in cold wet road conditions. Pity, as they otherwise sound good.

some reviewers on the Tyrereviews site have said the Bridgestones are good in the wet and they didn't notice any heat issues.

That’s a very good point!
To be honest I didn’t notice as I was too distracted by his guns.
I worry about myself sometimes. 

What won the test anyway? I tried watching it twice but fell asleep both times.

Handy for those of us approaching our first replacements, not so handy for those still awaiting a build date as the Pilot Sport 6 will be out before your cars are delivered
