BSB introduces pre-qualifying tweak to practice for final 2025 rounds
The British Superbike Championship organisers have introduced a new practice format tweak for the final 2025 rounds, which will now include a pre-qualifying segment at the end of FP2. The 2025 BSB season is close to its conclusion, with just two rounds left starting this weekend at Oulton Park, followed by the Brands Hatch finale on October 17-19. The change in the practice format for the title-deciding rounds was made after consulting with teams and riders. A dedicated pre-qualifying segment will now be part of FP2, focusing on time attacks to determine the Q1 and Q2 groups. Despite the adjustment in the practice structure, the qualifying sessions will remain the same, with the fastest six in Q1 progressing to the Q2 pole shootout. Reigning champion Kyle Ryde currently leads with 391 points, followed by Yamaha rider Bradley Ray at 360 points, setting the stage for an exciting conclusion to the 2025 British Superbike Championship at the Oulton Park round as they head into the Showdown event.
