From a press release issued by Octagon Motorsports UK through the World Superbike Championship press office:
SILVERSTONE AND BRANDS HATCH SUPERBIKE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ROUNDS
With reference to the various rumours and speculations referring to the Silverstone and Brands Hatch homologation for the forthcoming Superbike World Championship rounds Octagon Motorsports UK would like to clarify the following:
· The Silverstone track is already homologated by the FIM for 2003.
· At Brands Hatch the FIM Circuit Inspector Claude Danis will make a visit to the track in April in order to check the modifications already completed at Dingle Dell corner and Stirling’s bend. He will also examine the works to be carried out at Paddock Hill bend in order to issue a new homologation license.
In this respect, Octagon UK management has no cause to have any concern that the regulatory process will not proceed as planned and the annual Superbike World Championship meeting take place as usual.
