MISANO ADRIATICO (Italy) – June 26, 2010 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – The Pirelli Diablo Superbike tyres used to set record times in the Superpole on world-class circuits will now fly each host country’s flag for the six remaining races of the Superbike World Championship. The personalised Superpole labels will debut mid-season at the Misano World Circuit, honouring its host by featuring the blue and white flag of San Marino along with the word SUPERPOLE, 
identifying the tyres to be fitted by the 20 participants in the final qualifying. Two printed white stripes around the centre of the tyres will be visible on newly fitted tyres and when these stripes are scrubbed off on the first lap, the labels will remain for further identification by TV and spectators.
Giorgio Barbier, Racing Director for Pirelli Moto commented: “Pirelli is proud to display the flags of each circuit’s host country on these uniquely designed personalised labels created for the season’s remaining Superpole qualifying sessions. Superbike fans can be assured that we deliver the technologies developed in WSBK to street product, but it’s our pleasure to also offer this interesting design feature to WSBK fans and spectators that is available as part of Pirelli Moto’s premium street range.”
Motorcyclists can now personalise their own Diablo Rosso Corsa tyres just like the world-class Superpole riders of the Superbike World Championship via MY DIABLO ROSSO™ Corsa site found at www.pirellityre.com/drc.
