    In Italy the top riders change them every two hours or a fresh set of tires every race.
    My personal experience says that they give their best within their first 5 hours, from 5 to 15 they are good, from 15 to 20 they lost a lot of grip and after 20 hours your riding on egg shells.

      @@Pitbikesonic76 Pit Bikes use yx 160 or zs 155, 14hp, 1,25 kg of torque as championship rules.
      Minigps also have a 20hp class (usually daytona 190cc, 4 valves)

      I rode a strong KTM 105 pit bike and the PMTs hold up well for two or three 15-minute sessions. Later you can ride, but the grip is much worse and, as in the film, the time is at least 0.5 seconds worse.
