JACK Passfield (Bidwell) collected full points on the weekend in his battle for the 2026 Superbike Masters crown, after taking first place in all three races at the Penrite Australian Superbike Championship presented by Pirelli round at Qld Raceway.

Passfield trailed Ashley Woolford coming into the weekend’s action but relegated the series leader to second place in all three races, taking the lead in the title race.

This year’s Superbike Masters does not follow the same sequence as ASBK, with one more Round to be held later in the year at Tailem Bend (SA)

The ASBK Series has, however, concluded, with Queensland Raceway being the final event of the year.

Jake Farnsworth (Cattai) had a sensational and undoubtedly surprising Series win in the Yamaha Supersports category, after heading to Queensland with seemingly little hope of snatching the series from leader Valentino Knezovic, following an unfortunate DNF in the previous round at Morgan Park.

Farnsworth won Race One ahead of Knezovic, then sensationally grabbed the title when Knezovic crashed in Race Two, allowing Farnsworth to
surge past on the leaderboard to claim the 2026 Series.

JJ Nahlous (Glenwood) finished eighth and Jack Favelle (Glenhaven) ninth for the Series in the Superbike category, whilst Zac Russo (Sackville North) finished ninth in the Yamaha BLU CRU R3 Cup Series and 14th in the Road & Race Supersport 300 category.

The ASBK will move to a new summer format for 2026-27, with a six-round schedule set to run from October 2026 through March 2027.
