Has anybody tried Bridgestones R11, what did you think, did you use the soft or medium compound?
Fitted and ready for Monday at Snetterton.
Soft/Soft

Bridgestone specifications are the reverse of Pirelli. Bridgestone recommend the colder it is the softer you want.

You can see it fitted to the rear bottom right.

?280 for the set.

Imo I would not run without warmers...

Bridgestone R11

I?ve used Bridgestone R10s in the past and they were superb; especially the front tyre. The new R11s are meant to be even better.
 
Front is supposed to be V02 esq.
Rear lacks a little of the V02 ultimate drive grip.

That was according to Bob at FWR

Barely got above 10degrees air temp today.
There's some signs of cold tear forming but they did pretty well.
32f 26r off the warmers.
Soft/Soft compound

Front is confidence inspiring
Rear is a little wayward under acceleration when leant over...but there was no issue with the R11's.

Rear is bad actually. Bottom left photo - right side - looks like rebound is not set properly.
