WRC control tyre supplyer
So for tyre we have basically had Michelin or Pirelli for many years, ever since FIA restricted teams to one brand.
DMack and MRT have tried to get the contract with FIA for the top class, but not succeeded.
Now we will get a new company, Hankook coming in.

Will Hankook be a success, and maybe bring something new into the sport?
