Superbike-VM 2008

Superbike-VM 2008 kördes över 14 omgångar och 28 heat. Troy Bayliss tog sin tredje VM-titel, och avslutade karriären med en vinst i sista tävlingen i Algarve.

Reglementet för Superbike-VM förändrades så att tvåcylindriga motorer får en maximal volym på 1200 cm3 medan de fyrcylindriga motorerna fortsatt fick ha en maximal cylindervolym på 1000 cm3. Serien består av 14 tävlingshelger med friträningar och 2 kvalpass på fredag och lördag, ett så kallat Superpole där de 16 kvalsnabbaste kör ett snabbt varv ensam på banan och slutligen två race på söndagen både med startordning från samma kval och superpole.

Flag of Europe.svg
The Flag of Europe is the flag and emblem of the European Union (EU) and Council of Europe (CoE). It consists of a circle of 12 golden (yellow) stars on a blue background. It was created in 1955 by the CoE and adopted by the EU, then the European Communities, in the 1980s.

The CoE and EU are distinct in membership and nature. The CoE is a 47-member international organisation dealing with human rights and rule of law, while the EU is a quasi-federal union of 27 states focused on economic integration and political cooperation. Today, the flag is mostly associated with the latter.

It was the intention of the CoE that the flag should come to represent Europe as a whole, and since its adoption the membership of the CoE covers nearly the entire continent. This is why the EU adopted the same flag. The flag has been used to represent Europe in sporting events and as a pro-democracy banner outside the Union.
Flag of Portugal.svg
