The final round of the 2010 Australian Superbike Championship has officially been moved back one week, as first reported on MotoOnline.com.au last month.

In an event that will mark the season conclusion as a two-plus-four alongside the V8 Supercar Championship Series, confirmation came today from Australian Superbike Championship promoter International Entertainment Group that the round will now take place on 12-14 November rather than the originally scheduled date of 5-7 November.

“The V8 Supercar Board confirmed at its last meeting that they could accommodate the rescheduling of the Tasmanian race date to avoid a potential conflict that had been brought to their attention,” a statement from V8 Supercars read. “After consultation with all relevant parties this change has now been confirmed.”

It is believed that the reason for the date revision was that the earlier date clashed with the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival, which is also telecast by Channel Seven.
