In exceptional cases, should the sticker be damaged or applied in the wrong way,<br />
up to 2 extra stickers may be provided at the sole discretion of the <strong>FIM</strong> <strong>Superbike</strong><br />
Technical Director. However, the damaged sticker must be returned to the <strong>FIM</strong><br />
<strong>Superbike</strong> Technical Director and/or the tyre it was applied to must be absolutely<br />
intact<br />
Any modification or treatment (cutting, grooving) is forbidden.<br />
2.5.8 Engine<br />
The total number of engines that can be used by each rider during the entire<br />
Championship is limited to eight (8).<br />
The number of engines that can be used during each event is not limited.<br />
Each engine will be officially sealed by the <strong>FIM</strong> <strong>Superbike</strong> Technical Director<br />
or by his appointed staff before it can be used during an event. The seal will<br />
bear a serial number, which will be recorded. Any attempt made to remove<br />
the seal will damage it irreparably.<br />
A broken or damaged seal will be considered as if the engine has been used<br />
and it will be counted as a part of the rider’s allocation for the Championship.<br />
The crankcase, cylinder and cylinder heads will be sealed to control the<br />
engine use.<br />
A rider who needs to use more than the allocated number of eight (8) engines<br />
during the Championship, will receive a penalty. The penalty consists of<br />
having to start from the last grid position for the race and for the following<br />
race (two races in the same racing season).<br />
Wild card riders will be allowed to use two sealed engines during the event<br />
in which they take part.<br />
