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 />

2.5.8.1 Fuel injection system<br />

2.5.8.1.1 Fuel injection systems refer to throttle bodies, fuel injectors,<br />

variable length intake tract devices, fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator.<br />

• The original homologated fuel injection system must be used without<br />

any modification.<br />
