Stuart Higgs, the British Superbike Championship director, said: “After what seemed to be a very long winter, it's great to get the season underway with the official test at Donington Park. We were quite lucky with the weather, so we saw some meaningful lap times put in.
“It's great to see the first evidence of the new technical regulations and new confined choice on tyre material, new liveries, new team and rider combinations, so it's always a very exciting and motivating weekend.
“The lap time performances have shown that there's a great deal of depth of competition amongst everybody. One small caveat, we did see some rogue lap times, as it was an official test, the full track limits monitoring capability wasn't in place, so we will get to see more representative times when we reconvene in just nine days at Circuito de Navarra."
Below are the lap times for the sixth and final session of Sunday.
