The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 and Bridgestone Potenza Sport tyres have been garnering attention in the field of ultra-high-performance (UHP) and Ultra-ultra-high performance (UUHP) summer tyres respectively. Both are highly rated by numerous tyre tests, but they each have their unique strengths and cons.
The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6, made in Germany, ranks first in several tests. It earned the top laurels in the 'Autobild' test and finished third and fourth in the 'Autozeitung' and 'ADAC tests' respectively. The tyre received commendations for its versatility, comfort, low wear, and excellent performance in both wet and dry conditions. Moreover, the Goodyear tyre didn’t have any notable weaknesses; however, it was noted that it might not possess the heat resistance the Asymmetric 5 had during track tests. You can find more details regarding this here.
The Bridgestone Potenza Sport, manufactured in Poland and Hungary, bagged the second position in the same 'Autozeitung' and 'ADAC tests', but placed sixth in the 'Autobild' test. This high performer boasted considerable wet grip and delivered an impressive sporty feel. However, its performance plummeted in the cool wet braking test and it exhibited considerable wear after just three laps on a rigorous circuit. Lower performance in the aquaplaning tests, potential longevity issues when used on circuits, and high rolling resistance were its main demerits. Details about the Bridgestone Potenza Sport can be found here.
Overall, if comfort, durability, and energy efficiency are your primary concerns, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 may be your top pick. Conversely, if you desire top-level performance with an emphasis on thrills, the Bridgestone Potenza Sport could be the right tyre for you. It's vital to note that the latter might not be as durable as other options, especially in rigorous circuit usage.
Regardless, both options represent some of the best offerings from Goodyear and Bridgestone, and both have a considerable record of excellent performance in numerous categories.
