The remainder of the British Superbike Championship event at Oulton Park has been cancelled following a “severe” incident involving 11 riders.

Organisers called it a “major chain reaction”, which brought race three to an immediate stop during the first lap.

Series director Stuart Higgs said the rest of the event had been cancelled.

“As people may have seen it was a severe and catastrophic incident coming off of turn one at the start of the British Supersport race,” Higgs told TNT Sports.

“The medical response is still ongoing and as a result we do confirm the event has been cancelled and there will be no more racing today.

“There will be a further statement issued by Motorsport Vision Racing as we go into the evening once we collate all the information.”

Race one of the meeting took place on Sunday with Bradley Ray claiming victory, before Leon Haslam secured his first win since 2018 in Monday’s sprint.

Oulton Park in Cheshire was hosting the first round of the 2025 championship.
