It appears as though the WorldSBK championship might be considering more race venues outside of Europe, with Malaysia, China, and the US all mentioned as part of a report from Speedweek. WorldSBK has not raced in Asia since 2023 when the Indonesian round at Mandalika was part of the calendar. That does not rule out China from potentially having a WorldSBK race in the future, but it might just mean that it has to wait a little while longer. The Sepang circuit is a perennial fixture on the MotoGP calendar already, and formerly hosted the WorldSBK championship from 2014 to 2016. WorldSBK currently races at Phillip Island, Australia, but beyond that the remainder of its 12-round schedule is made up of races across Europe, including the UK round at Donington Park.
