ASBK calendar update amid Victoria border closures
As announced previously, the ASBK Management Team responded quickly to the circumstances of updated border closures which have occurred over the past 48hrs to address the difficult situation faced in Victoria, where cases of COVID-19 have again begun to rise.
The ASBK Management Team has worked extremely hard over the past 48 hours to again find suitable solutions to ensure the 2020 mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship presented by Motul can be the best it can be, with the solution being an ASBK calendar update.
ASBK is pleased to advise that the ASBK Round scheduled for Morgan Park Raceway in August now moves to November 6 – 8. An additional change will also occur with the ASBK Round at Winton in September moving back one week, to be held on 18 – 20 September.
ASBK Management wishes to again express their thanks to the Motorcycle Sportsmen of QLD for their flexibility and support, and further thanks to Winton Motor Raceway who have been a long-time supporter of ASBK. ASBK wishes to also advise that any further impact of COVID-19 to the 2020 ASBK Championship will result in the cancellation of any such round, and no further postponements will occur.
ASBK Management continue to ask the ASBK paddock for their understanding in this complex time, and again remind competitors and teams that the COVID-19 environment is an unprecedented challenge, and their flexibility will be required throughout 2020.
