MCE British Superbike Championship organisers MSVR will pay a special tribute this Sunday at Snetterton to honour Simon Andrews and Karl Harris, who both recently lost their lives whilst competing at the North West 200 and Isle of Man TT road races respectively.

Prior to Sunday's opening feature MCE BSB race, an RAF Reserves Honda Superbike as competed by Simon this year, and Karl's 1999 European Superstock Championship-winning GR Motorsport Suzuki will be positioned ahead of the starting grid. Simultaneously, in the skies the world's only airworthy B-17 Flying Fortress, Sally-B, bomber will perform an air display, followed by a low-level flypast by an RAF Tornado GR4 operated out of nearby RAF Marham.

MCE BSB Series Director Stuart Higgs said:

"This weekend at Snetterton the MCE BSB Championship reconvenes following the six-week break occupied by the major road racing events, which claimed the lives of Simon and Karl. They were both hugely popular and accomplished riders who competed at the highest level in our series for more than a decade, and this is the first opportunity for us to pay tribute to them in a unique and fitting way. Our thoughts continue to be with all their families, friends and team members."
