Milan, February 10, 2009 - Rally Norway , the second round of the 2009 World Rally Championship, starts from Hamar, 60km north of the nation's capital in Oslo. While the mainstay of the action runs on the frozen roads around the rally's hometown, Oslo will also play its part for the first time ever on Thursday (February 12).
The event gets underway from the Bjerkebanen racecourse close to the centre of the city. The two-kilometer crowd-pleaser is just a warm-up for the three days' of flat-out driving to come. And that awe-inspiring action takes place on a surface which the spectators can barely stand on. Heavy snowfalls in the lead up to the event have been compacted to make a near-perfect ice base for the stages. As much as this is a true test of man and machine, it's arguably the Pirelli Sottozero tyres which face the biggest test; the Italian rubber is the link between machine and mother earth.
During the rally, the manufacturer cars will be tended to inside what's known locally as the Vikingskipet, or the Viking Ship in English. This facility was built for the 1994 Winter Olympics, when it was used as the speed-skating arena. Next week, however, it will shield the world's highest-tech rally cars from the biting Scandinavian cold.
In a move designed to reduce costs, Pirelli has redesigned its Sottozero 'ice' tyre in 15" diameter. Up till now virtually all WRC ice tyres have been constructed in very narrow 16" diameters with the objective of providing a long and thin contact patch capable of biting deep into snow, whilst still providing good traction capability. With only one truly 'winter' rally in the World Championship this has always meant a costly exercise for the teams, buying stocks of narrow 16" wheels which then can not be used in any other WRC event.
Pirelli has studied the problem carefully and come up with a solution that in pre-event testing has performed to an excellent level. Armed with 384 studs, each 7mm long, the new Sottozero utilizes a very open, aggressive asymmetric tread pattern and a thermal compound that meets the challenge not only of providing grip in sub zero temperatures but also the ability to retain the studs during hard driving. The size is 205/65 x 15, though the construction has been optimized to create as narrow a contact patch as possible consistent with use on a standard 7 x 15" rim.
Mario Isola, Rally Manager for Pirelli commented ' Rallying on snow is always a great spectacle but it is also highly demanding on the tyres. We have put a lot of work into this new Sottozero and we are sure it will give a high level of confidence to the drivers in the snowy conditions of Norway'.

Villa Carlos Paz, 24-26 April, 2009 - Pirelli Scorpion at Rally Argentina, one of the most spectacular and demanding events of 2009 WRC that will be based at Villa Carlos Paz in the heart of Cordobese Sierras from April 24 to 26. This rally is a demanding challenge that Pirelli technicians are ready to cope with supporting teams and drivers also on the basis of the experience gained last year when the rally was characterized by pouring rains and muddy surfaces that made the stages even more difficult.
This year the Rally of Argentina should have better climatic conditions also thanks to the decision to move the event one month later. In any case the rally remains a difficult one and Pirelli will supply teams with the soft version of the Scorpion, the tyre ensuring excellent performance levels on soft and muddy terrains.
The materials used for the Pirelli Scorpions destined to the WRC represent the maximum innovation in terms of resistance. Moreover Pirelli Scorpion adopts "run flat" technology solutions that besides reducing to the minimum the risk of punctures during the rally, allows to complete the special stages without significant delay and without damaging the car mechanics and bodywork. Pirelli Scorpions will ensure safety and performance at Rally Argentina, well known among rally enthusiasts for its mix of high speed and bumpy surfaces.
The young Pirelli Star Drivers will not be at the start of the southamerican rally. Pirelli Star Driver is the programme promoted by Pirelli in collaboration with the FIA in order to promote and support new rally talents. After the debut event in Portugal, the young drivers will compete again in Sardinia at Rally of Italy.
