Dunlop provides tyres to the majority of the teams for the EWC opener

At the opening of the FIM Endurance World Championship (EWC) season, Dunlop will supply tires for 42 out of 52 motorcycles participating in the "24 Hours of Le Mans" motorcycle race in France this weekend.

As the exclusive supplier of the Superstock class, this race marks the largest Dunlop team lineup in EWC history. All 34 Superstock class motorcycles, seven Formula EWC class motorcycles, and an experimental entry will use the company's tires.

To support each of the 42 motorcycles over the weekend, Dunlop will bring 4,000 tires to the track and seven of its own racing engineers to provide each Dunlop team with additional support and ensure maximum tire performance.
