World Supers at PI

[PeteZX12]

I notice the schedule appears to have changed so that Superbike Race 1 has been brought forward from Sunday to Saturday afternoon. That might kill part of the attraction of going just for the Sunday.

Wonder what the logic is behind that ? I'm sure a lot of people are going to be upset when they turn their tellies on Sunday and only get one superbike race

[oldmanmike]

Logic as I've been told is the European tv and punters being able to watch a race a day at a convenient time for them....instead of 1 race in the morning and the other after lunch.

Makes little difference to me...I'll be out there somewhere on all 3 days....in orange..

I think it's a great idea, if you crash in race 1 you now have time to fix it before race 2

More than likely just trying to get more people through the gate on Saturday.

[rooster]

So Saturday Sunday for Superbike races is this the new format for all rounds ?

[pkay]

Yup - have a look on the WSBK website explains it all there

i reckon its a great idea.
no more waiting for hours on a sunday night for race 2 on TV.
