4年連続のル・マン耐久レース

について 2025 ル・マン24時間レース をマークした。 4年連続 その キングタイヤ・フルガス・レーシング・チーム took part in the FIM耐久世界選手権 — one of the most prestigious motorcycle endurance races in the world. Their consistency and long-term presence in the event have built a reputation for endurance, precision, and tire innovation. The team competes as entry #116, fielding a Kawasaki-powered machine in the highly competitive EWC field.

Year-by-year progression:

  • 2022: Kingtyre and Full Gas Racing Team jointly established the Kingtyre Full Gas Racing Team, marking Kingtyre’s debut in the FIM Endurance World Championship. As the first Chinese tire manufacturer to compete at this level of international motorsport, the team focused on gathering baseline telemetry and understanding the endurance racing environment.
  • 2023: Second consecutive participation with refined compound formulations. Data from the debut year was applied to optimize tire construction and warm-up performance, resulting in more consistent lap times across stints.
  • 2024: A landmark year — the team completed over 850 laps under challenging wet conditions using Kingtyre K01 rain racing tires. This race generated critical wet-weather data that directly influenced tread pattern design for production tires.
  • 2025: The most complete performance yet — zero crashes, zero mechanical faults, 16 pit stops, and an average lap time of 1:40.22 across the full 24 hours.

This multi-year commitment to endurance racing is rare among tire manufacturers and demonstrates Kingtyre’s dedication to race-proven product development そして real-world validation under the most extreme conditions motorsport can offer.

The 2024 Race: A Defining Test in Wet Conditions

について 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans presented one of the most challenging weather conditions the team has faced, with persistent rain throughout significant portions of the race. This provided an invaluable opportunity to validate Kingtyre’s K01 wet-weather racing tires under genuine endurance racing pressure.

Key outcomes from the 2024 race:

  • 850+ laps completed in mixed wet/dry conditions — a testament to tire durability and wet grip performance
  • Water evacuation performance validated at racing speeds on Le Mans’ high-speed straights and technical corners
  • Data collected informed updates to tread pattern geometry そして compound formulation for the K01 rain tire

According to industry reports, the Kingtyre Full Gas Racing Team’s growing presence in the EWC has attracted attention across the motorcycle racing community, with Webike Japan highlighting the team’s expanding footprint in the championship.


キングタイヤエンジニアリングスリックタイヤ最適化のためのリアルタイムデータ

A key component of Kingtyre’s endurance racing strategy is its tire engineering department. During the 2025 ル・マン24時間レース, a dedicated team of Kingtyre engineers was embedded with the racing crew to monitor tire behavior in real time. This data collection process plays a crucial role in the ongoing optimization of Kingtyre slick tires, directly linking track performance to production tire development.

レース中のエンジニアリングの成果:

  • オーバー 1TB of telemetry data collected from tire temperature sensors, pressure monitoring, and compound wear measurement across all four wheels
  • Lap-by-lap analysis using AI-powered prediction models to forecast tire degradation and optimal change windows
  • Live feedback loop that allowed pit crews to fine-tune pressure on hot and cold slick tires based on real-time track temperature readings
  • Surface temperature monitoring across the 80–120°C optimal operating window for racing compounds

This feedback loop directly drives improvements in:

  • 高速グリップ性能 at Le Mans’ demanding corners and straight sections
  • Wear rate predictions across Kingtyre’s four-compound system (Super Soft, Soft, Medium, Hard)
  • コールドタイヤのウォームアップ効率 — reducing the number of laps needed to reach optimal operating temperature
  • Wet-weather tire design based on real-world rain racing data

Compound Development Through Endurance Racing

Endurance racing places unique demands on tire compounds that sprint racing cannot replicate. Tires must maintain consistent performance across multiple-hour stints, through temperature fluctuations from day to night, and across varying track conditions. Kingtyre’s Le Mans program has been instrumental in developing the company’s four-compound racing tire system.

Each compound serves a specific purpose validated at Le Mans:

  • Super Soft: Optimized for maximum grip in cooler conditions and wet tracks — validated during the 2024 rain race
  • Soft: Primary race compound for dry conditions, balancing grip and durability across race stints
  • Medium: Designed for mixed conditions and longer stints — tested extensively in night racing conditions
  • Hard: Maximum durability for extended stints on abrasive surfaces, maintaining performance over hundreds of kilometers

This racing-derived compound technology flows directly into Kingtyre’s production tires, meaning riders benefit from the same engineering rigor that performs at Le Mans.


パフォーマンス概要:エラーゼロ、最大効率

The hallmark of the Kingtyre Full Gas Racing Team’s 2025 performance was クラッシュゼロ、メカニカル・トラブルゼロ. Not a single error in tire strategy, rider shift, or mechanical handling was recorded across the full 24-hour race distance.

Race Data Summary:

メートルValue
Total Race Time24:00:00

The performance validated the endurance capacity and stability of キングタイヤ tires under high stress, variable weather, and overnight racing shifts — conditions that push tire technology to its absolute limits.


持久力とデータ:勝利の方程式

リアルタイムのエンジニアリング、ワールドクラスのライダー、レースで実証済みのタイヤを組み合わせた。 キングタイヤ・フルガス・レーシング・チーム proved once again why endurance racing is the ultimate test bed for tire technology. The 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans wasn’t just about competition — it was a mobile R&D lab accelerating tire innovation with every lap.

As Kingtyre continues its presence in the FIM耐久世界選手権, every race generates new data, refines compounds, and builds on four years of continuous endurance racing expertise. The Kingtyre Full Gas Racing Team will return to Le Mans with the same commitment to innovation, reliability, and performance that has defined their journey from debut to becoming a recognized contender in world endurance racing.
