The decision was made just before Sykes completed the manufacturer's first WSBK win since 2006.

Transportation belonging to motorsport teams is set to be more thoroughly searched after the discovery of drugs and a handgun on a WSBK truck.

Paul Bird Motorsport have concluded their agreement to become the official World Superbike racing partner of the Kawasaki team from 2009.

2005 BSB champion Lavilla has joined forces with Paul Bird's team, which won the BSB crown in 2002 and 2003, for its graduation to WSBK next year - and completed almost 200 laps doing his first encounter with the Honda CBR1000RR.

Gregorio Lavilla is to return to the World Superbike Championship in 2008 after being confirmed as the lone rider for the Paul Bird Motorsport team.
