What kind of tires does the moto gp riders use?

Answer 1

slicks

Answer 2

Not just slicks, all the MotoGP riders use custom made slicks. Part of the competition is between tire companies. The compounds and construction are secret and they are guarded constantly. Last year a tire was stolen from Michellin and there was a huge uproar.

Michellin has the record and traditionally they made the best tires. Bridgestone is coming on strong this year with Casey Stoner on the Ducati challenging Rossi who runs Michellins.
