The 2016 British Superbike championship gets underway at Silverstone this weekend and the anticipation is building ahead of what could be one of the most hotly contested seasons in recent history.
Four-time champion Shane Byrne makes a bold move to Ducati, who haven't won a BSB race since 2010, with his PBM team as former World Superbike race winner Leon Haslam returns to Britain with the JG Speedfit Kawasaki outfit. Throw in John Hopkins, Michael Laverty, Christian Iddon, James Ellison, Ryuichi Kiyonari and a whole host more into the mix and you've got a recipe for potentially nail-bitingly close racing.
On top of that, BSB bosses will roll out an all-new qualifying format for 2016 marking the return of one-lap superpole. Read all about that here.
Here are all the TV times for each televised race across the weekend.
