2016 WorldSBK Provisional Calendar
Very excited to see the 2016 WorldSBK Provisional Calendar released. For those of you that didn’t get any races in the 2015 season, it was pretty much dominated by the Brits (thats a very good thing in our book), namely Rea, Davies, Sykes and Haslam and it is in that order that they finished the championship.
MONZA! MONZA MONZA!
If anyone hasn’t noticed, we are a little excited about the inclusion of Monza in the WorldSBK season and our packages will be on sale for this popular race series and having been to Milan and Monza park with Formula 1™ over the years, we know a thing or two about a race weekend here
Oh and a special mention for Laguna Seca, anything at speed going down the corkscrew is amazing to watch!
