Brands tie up WSB deal

Brands Hatch will host a World Superbike round until at least 2007.

Circuit owner Motorsport Vision has reached an agreement with WSB organiser FGSport, and will host the 2005 meeting on August 5-7.

“I’m delighted to have agreed a new contract,” said Motorsport Vision boss Jonathan Palmer. “With the reigning WSB champion being British, next year’s event is going to be absolutely fantastic.”

The Kent circuit has now hosted the event for 12 years, during which time is became the largest outdoor sporting event in the UK. To help celebrate the new agreement, WSB champion James Toseland will be the guest of honour at the MRO Powerbike season finale on Sunday, October 24.
