"No 'event average' points will be calculated if one of the configurations has no finishers. The 'event average' will then be calculated, based on the results of the other race from the same event. If neither race has any finishers from one of the configurations, the event will not be considered.
"2. 'Wet' races (as declared by the Race Director) are not taken in account for the calculation of an 'event average'.
"3. After 3 events, the average value of the 'event averages' of each configuration will be calculated. The score of the 1000cc 4 cylinders and the score of the 1200cc 2 cylinders will be compared as follows:
"• Should the average value of the 'event averages' over 3 events favour the 1200cc 2 cylinders by more than 5 points, and if a rider of a machine with this configuration is leading the riders' Superbike World Championship standings at that time, then the minimum weight of all 1200cc 2 cylinders will be increased by 3kg. The upper limit is 171 kg.
"• Should average value of the 'event averages' over 3 events favour the 1000cc 4 cylinders by more than 5 points, and if a rider of a machine with this configuration is leading the riders' Superbike World Championship standings at that time, then the minimum weight of all 1200cc 2 cylinders will be reduced by 3 kg. The lower limit is 162 kg.
"If the minimum weight is not updated, then the results of three more events will be considered, and a new average value of the 'event averages' will be calculated over six events and so on, over multiples of three events, until the points gap of the average value of the 'event averages' from the last minimum weight update is higher than 5.
"The Superbike Technical Director will inform all the teams about the possible minimum weight adjustments, within 24 hours from the end of the last event (the last meeting of the International Jury) where the average value of the 'event averages' was calculated. The new minimum weight adjustments must be applied from the first following event."
