Thursday sees the opening MCE British Superbike Championship clash of the season as the 2015 contenders come together for the only official test ahead of the Easter opening round at Donington Park.
The official test at Donington, which is free to enter, will see the class of 2015 go head-to-head on track for the first time in all their new liveries, plus you can follow all the action with live timing available throughout the day both online via the official website and the MCE BSB app.
The test will mark the return of reigning champion Shane Byrne following his pre-season testing crash that left him nursing a hand injury, whilst the Milwaukee Yamaha team will debut the new R1 in the UK for the first time with Josh Brookes and Broc Parkes.
Ryuichi Kiyonari will be ready for his first full test following two initial track sessions recently at Brands Hatch and Mallory Park as he bids to equal Byrne's fourth title this season with Buildbase BMW, whilst James Ellison will be pushing for the top after successful tests in Spain with JG Speedfit Kawasaki.
Young guns Danny Buchan (Be Wiser Kawasaki) and Luke Mossey (Quattro Plant Kawasaki) were rapidly on the pace in Spain and will go up against their more experienced rivals for the first time on UK turf.
The test will also feature riders from the Motorpoint British Supersport, Pirelli National Superstock 1000 and 600 Championships, plus the one-make Ducati TriOptions Cup and the Santander Consumer Finance KTM British Junior Cup.
Entry to the official test is free of charge to spectators and includes access to the MCE BSB paddock.
