In the opening World Supersport race, a mandatory pit-stop will be required in the race and no tyre is allowed to do more than ten laps of the sixteen lap race. Riders can pit in whenever they want in the flag-to-flag event.

World Superbike has a new race format including the ten lap sprint race to determine the first three rows of the grid for race two, the Tissot Superpole Race. The winner gets 12 points, but the race win isn't added to the record books. Pirelli have supplied a short race tyre that should last ten laps of every circuit on the calendar.
