Yokohama has strengthened its support for grassroots motorsport by becoming the single tire supplier for the Scottish Fiesta ST Cup. The company has previously supplied tires to the championship, which had more than 20 drivers competing in 2024. It is returning in a multiple-year arrangement that will see Advan A050 tires in action at Knockhill.
Simon Clarke, motorsport and warranty technician at Yokohama, said “Yokohama’s commitment to grassroots motorsport is further increased with this latest deal to be the single tire supplier to the Scottish Fiesta ST Cup. The championship is hard fought with lots of close racing, and the Advan A050 with its superior levels of cornering, braking and traction will be perfectly at home on the track.”
The Scottish Fiesta ST Cup 2025 will be held over 12 rounds at six events, with the action starting on April 6, and the away round taking place at Cadwell Park in Lincolnshire in June. The size of Advan A050 being used for the championship is 195/50R15.
Becky Smith, championship representative for the Scottish Fiesta ST drivers, added, “We’re delighted that Yokohama is making a welcome return and will be our new single tire supplier going forward.”
The Advan A050, renowned for its handling performance, offers quicker lap times with round edge-shaped grooves, optimized profile and groove distribution, and a large center block.
