The Comunidad Valenciana Ricardo Tormo Circuit in Valencia hosts the third round of the 2009 Superbike World Championship. The circuit offers near-perfect views, so fans are treated to an absolute feast of racing wherever they are seated.
The Superbike World Championship vies with the Road Racing World Championship (Moto GP) to be the world's premier motorcycle competition. The attraction of the Superbikes is that they are all based on production models, so the fans can identify with the bikes on show. They are also closing the gap on the Moto GP bikes in terms of speed and acceleration, and on some courses the respective lap records are extremely close.
