Yokohama Tire Corp.'s driver, Laura Hayes, is in a new, immersive film from Apple TV+ titled Adventure: Hill Climb.
The film, streaming on Apple Vision Pro, is an immersive film revolving around Hayes attempting to break her own record she set during the 2024 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb on Yokohama’s Advan A052 tires.
Hayes, who won the Pikes Peak GT4 trophy by the Yokohama division in a Toyota GR Supra GT4, became the fastest female up the mountain with a time of 10:20.487.
Yokohama is the exclusive tire supplier of the Pikes Peak GT4 Trophy by Yokohama division.
In the film, Hayes takes on Pikes Peak again on Advan A005 slick tires.
“I’m proud to have had Yokohama by my side in my past couple of Pikes Peak attempts,” says Hayes.
“We won the GT4 division last June on the ADVAN A052s. You’re only as fast as the tires beneath you, so when we were challenged to push the 10-minute barrier, we knew exactly what tire to use. The A005s delivered out of the gate to the finish line, making the best of a day where road conditions were particularly challenging!”
According to Yokohama officials, the A005 is a max-grip tire that’s purpose-built for racing, delivering fast lap times and predictable handling built upon the foundation of Yokohama’s decades-long legacy in motorsports.
The A052 is a street-legal, race-ready tire. The ultra-high performance summer tire is geared toward sports car, track day and race enthusiasts, and is engineered for handling, increased traction and improved lap times.
