ASBK Calendar Update

Motorcycling Australia announced today that Round 5 of the mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship, presented by Motul, to be held at Morgan Park Raceway on 20-22 August has been cancelled due to the ongoing state border restrictions and COVID-19 affecting many parts of Australia.

Whilst hopes were held that any improvements in the coming weeks may mean that the event would be possible, yesterday’s decision by Queensland Government to close their border and continued lockdowns in many parts of Australia, now cements this decision.

This means that on the current schedule the next round of the 2021 mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship will be held at The Bend in late September. ASBK indicate that they expect to make more announcements pertaining to The Bend round next week.
