Promoters of the Bennetts British Superbike Championship (BSB) have postponed Silverstone’s season-opener due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Earlier this week the UK government announced further and significant measures designed to limit the spread of the COVID-19 infections, forcing organisers the reschedule the opening round initially scheduled for 10-12 April.

The BSB is continuing to work closely with teams, circuits, broadcasters and partners to evaluate the constantly-changing situation and will provide further updates when available.
