Ranked #6 of 10
Securing the sixth spot among ten contenders, Bridgestone Potenza Sport showcased a solid performance marked by a "Good" final rating. The tire demonstrated an impressive sporty flair with excellent safety margins in aquaplaning situations and dynamic handling characteristics combined with direct steering response. While it excelled in wet circle cornering, standing out as the best in this discipline, its performance was slightly dampened by extended braking distances on wet surfaces. This combination of strengths and weaknesses highlighted both the tire’s adeptness in handling challenging conditions and areas for potential improvement.
