FOLLOWING its successful return to the mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship presented by Motul (ASBK) calendar in 2024, One Raceway will be back for more in 2025.
The Goulburn circuit will host the penultimate round of the ASBK Championship for the second consecutive year, this time from October 3-5.
After a multi-million-dollar transformation, which included new and improved turns, a complete resurface, safety and tech upgrades, new paddock infrastructure and more spectator-friendly viewing, ASBK returned to the 2.32km One Raceway this year after a two-year hiatus – the first major championship of any motorsport persuasion in Australia to christen the new facility.
The racing across the weekend was quintessential One Raceway: tight and tough, and with more passing opportunities than ever before on the revised layout.
The SW-Motech Superbike, Kawasaki Supersport, Race and Road Supersport 300 and BLU CRU Oceania Junior Cup (OJC) classes will all compete at One Raceway as the ASBK Championship approaches the ‘make or break’ part of the season, with only one round to follow. The event will also have some international flavour, with the Yamaha R3 BLU CRU Asia-Pacific Championship to also feature on the event schedule.
Friday is practice for all categories, Saturday is qualifying for all, plus the opening races of the weekend for OJC, Yamaha R3 and Supersport 300.
Sunday is a packed day of racing, featuring all categories, with Superbikes in a total of two races, Supersport / Next Generation in two, Road & Race Supersport in three, Yamaha R3 in two and OJC in three.
JJ Nahlous (Glenwood) and Jack Favelle (Cattai) are currently ranked 7th and 9th respectively in Superbikes, Jake Farnsworth (Glenhaven) 6th in Supersport, William Hunt (Mulgoa Rise), Elijah Andrew (Marayong) and Zac Russo (Sackville North) ranked 19th, 35th and 41st respectively in Supersport 300, whilst Adam Jordan (East Kurrajong) is yet to be ranked in that category.
Xavier Curmi (Wallacia) and Adam Jordan are ranked 3rd and 17th respectively in OJC, and William Hunt is ranked 19th in R3.
