Hello...Quadrafoglio doesn't stand for AWD, Bro! I'm comparing R compunds in 11 degree weather to Blizzak LM32...which are absolutely better in cold weather. The real point is that in extreme cold weather the Alfa should be handicapped by R Compounds, not helped by them, yet it still was incredibly sure footed, even with traction control off!!!

Shit, when I turn traction control off in the M3 with MPSS on a 90 degree day, the car still doesn't put the power down to the ground that great. I'd call that pretty impressive for the Alfa's drivetrain.
