From a press release issued by Pirelli:

PIRELLI CONTINGENCY RACERS MUST REGISTER ONLINE FOR 2003

(Rome, GA) Pirelli has adopted a new system for racers registering for contingency support.

Effective immediately, all racers must register online at Pirelli’s new U.S. website, www.us.pirellimoto.com . Click on the “Pirelli Racing Contingency” link, read the information, and then click on the “Contingency Web Site” link. The online form shows the racer information required. It also includes a personal User ID and password that will allow racers to view their personal account status, see the contingencies earned, and create contingency certificates by choosing the posted earnings.

Rich Munson, Pirelli Race Manager, said the forms are not yet complete, but should be within a matter of weeks. He said the new system will allow racers to use their Pirelli contingency certificates “much faster than in the past. Which means our racers will now be able to get their new tires as fast as they earn them.”
