satisfactory
Ranked #8 of 11
Securing the 8th position among 11 contenders, the Fulda SportControl 2 earned a final rating of 'Satisfactory' for its performance. The tyre was praised for its branded profile, which demonstrated secure driving characteristics on both wet and dry roads, showcasing good aquaplaning resistance and short braking distances on dry surfaces, along with low rolling resistance and high comfort levels. Specifically, it excelled in disciplines such as Aquaplaning - cross and Comfort, marking it as a standout in these areas. However, it was not without its drawbacks, as it had extended wet braking distances and moderate lateral grip on dry roads, coupled with an indirect steering response. These aspects were the main points of critique but did not overshadow its overall competent performance.
