Uhm, are you sure about this? My understanding is that Michelin makes 3 Pro 3 tires: The Pro3 Race, The Pro3 Grip(with a grippier rubber compound and more puncture resistance, and the Pro3 Light.

As I understand it the "Service Course" bit is just marketing lahguage referencing that the specific tire has been used in the Pro Peleton.
