During qualifying at Autobahn’s Festival of Speed, Brandon Schwarz had the rare opportunity to be the first driver to run Hoosier’s brand new W3 rain tire – developed specifically for the Ligier F3 platform.
These tires had never been tested in true competitive conditions until now. The timing lined up perfectly: brand new set in hand, and just enough rain on track to put them to work. Brandon’s qualifying laps sent rooster tails flying, and the tires delivered exactly as advertised – grip, consistency, and confidence in unpredictable conditions.
By race time, the sun had dried the track and we were back on slicks – but this photo marks a moment we’re proud to have been part of.
HAVOC Motorsport drivers ended the race taking all three podium positions – a perfect finish to a weekend full of firsts.
