Road Racing FIM Superbike & Supersport World Championships

B) Practice by riders contracted to compete in the Championship is
prohibited at each circuit included in the calendar, after the running
of the first event, with the following exceptions:
a. Within the six days prior to the race day, private practice on
the same track for riders participating in the event may be
organised. They must be open to all the entered riders and if a
charge is made, it shall be no greater than 60 €uros per rider
for the day. The information concerning the supplementary
practices must be sent to all the riders entered, to the FIM and
IMS.
b. Free or qualifying practices at the event.
c. Practice at any circuit after the event at that circuit.
d. Practice at the Testing Circuit designated by each team (see
Art. 1.11.1) which may take place up to 6 days before the race
scheduled for the circuit.
e. Official practice sessions organised by IMS, with the approval
of the FIM.
f. Participation in any other FIM World Championship or Prize
events.
g. Wild cards and one event riders.
h. Any activity allowed by the Race Direction.
C) Exceptions to this rule may be granted, with the approval of the
FIM, due to reasons of force majeure. For example, where a team
recruits a qualified rider to replace an injured rider, the qualified rider
could possibly have practised unwillingly at a circuit included in the
Championships.
D) During the four days preceding the beginning of the official practices,
scooters are the only two-wheel motorised vehicles on which the
riders participating in the event, are allowed to ride on the track.
Exceptions may be granted with the approval of the FIM.
