PMT Tyres become Official eSkootr Tyre Partner of the eSkootr Championship™

The eSkootr Championship™ (eSC) is proud to welcome PMT Tyres as Official Tyre Partner to the world’s first electric scooter racing championship.

The Italian manufacturer will provide tyres for all of the S1-X racing scooters in the championship from 2022.

PMT have been on hand throughout the year at eSC testing in the UK, Italy and France working closely with our technical team and gaining invaluable insights from our test riders. Various compounds have been assessed and refined to produce the final high performance dry and wet weather tyres for our racing. Teams will select their tyres at the start of the race weekend, and use the same ones throughout. All PMT tyres used by the eSC at races will be centrally recycled and used for second life projects.

Sustainability and environmental performance are also dialled into our tyre development roadmap with PMT. As well as the recycling of all our race tyres, work has already started on the development of a natural rubber tyre for the championship, putting environmental performance at the heart of our R&D programme.

Laura Pauselli, PMT co-founder, added:

“We are very proud to be joining the eSkootr family as the Official Tyre Partner. We share eSC’s ambition’s for this exciting new championship as well as this entirely new category of global motorsport. We’re also aligned with eSC’s mission to transfer safety and sustainability relevance from the track to the real world of micromobility.

“Tyre innovation is vital to improving the safety of electric scooters on the road, especially in the wet.”

Hrag Sarkissian, eSkootr Championship™ co-founder and CEO, added:

“PMT has done an incredible job developing a tyre capable of meeting the unique demands of the S1-X racing scooter. We’re delighted to formalise that relationship by welcoming them to the Championship as our Official Tyre Partner. They share our vision for safety and sustainability at the highest level of racing performance.

Hrag Sarkissian, eSkootr Championship™ co-founder and CEO

To work with a partner committed to innovation through racing is the perfect fit for us and we look forward to a successful partnership as we enter our first season of racing together.
