WorldSBK and Misano World Circuit extend partnership for four more years
The Italian venue will continue hosting a round of the FIM Superbike World Championship.
Dorna WSBK Organization is delighted to announce the renewal of the partnership with the Misano World Circuit “Marco Simoncelli” to host an official round of the FIM Superbike World Championship for a further four-year period (2016-2019).
With the 2015 edition, Misano has become the Italian venue with the highest number of WorldSBK events ever hosted (23) and the third overall, behind Phillip Island and Assen.
The recent, full resurfacing of the track has further increased the already excellent standards of the circuit, making the Misano World Circuit “Marco Simoncelli” a true state-of-the-art motorsport venue. Always a riders’ favourite as well as one of the most attended by fans, over the years the event has produced some of the most memorable moments in World Superbike history.
Daniel Carrera, WSBK Championship Director: “We are really pleased to continue our journey together with the Misano World Circuit ‘Marco Simoncelli’, a venue that has always shown great interest to the Superbike World Championship and to motorcycle racing in general. A four-year renewal helps both parties to plan the future editions with renewed confidence, allowing us to do our best to keep the Riviera di Rimini Round as one the best and most enjoyable events on the calendar for fans, riders and teams.”
