    This test is great if outright track times are all that matters, but what about durability? I don't need the fastest possible tire, but a tire that feels good, gives me confidence and lasts more than 4,000km. How do each of these tires compare for durability? It would be good if you provided a tread depth measurement after testing and list how many km were run on each tire. This could give an idea of longevity i.e. if the tire had 8mm of tread in the middle when new and then 6.7mm (i.e. 1.3mm of wear) after 1,500km then that's 1500*(8-1.5)/1.3=7500 km of expected life before it reaches the 1.5mm wear bars. This would be invaluable information when comparing tires.
