Gregorio Lavilla has confirmed recent changes to the rules were made to allow more teams and riders to be competitive in WorldSBK going forward.
In recent seasons, the dominance of a few riders and teams in WorldSBK has limited the number of challengers for wins. To address this, changes in rules have been made, such as adjusting minimum weights, making crankshaft and balancing shaft changes, and implementing defined rev limits. These changes aim to create a more level playing field and bring different bikes closer in terms of top speed. The goal is to ensure that all participants have the opportunity to compete and believe they can win. The concept is to combine an exciting show with fairness and challenge for all. However, any further reductions in RPMs will only be considered if non-competitive teams are given additional concessions.
