Block sipes are positioned at a 60º angle, with the same effect as the nose of an F1 racing car. Block rigidity has been optimized, improving both traction and braking performance.
GUTT II Simulation Straight Grooves

Block & Slick Combination
Lateral grooves improve traction and braking. The combined with slick areas reduces wear on the inside edge and guards against becoming unbalanced with the outside edge. Straight grooves positioned toward the inside edge, ensures water evacuation and improved wet performance, such as anti-hydroplaning. The position of the enlarged block ensures rigidity, and improves dry performance, such as dry handling.
