Tyre marshalls will be a thing of the past for next year's World Superbike championship.

This year teams have been responsible for ensuring that tyre marshalls mark every new tyre that is used on World Superbikes.

But next year a new system of high-tech stickers will be used to regulate how many new tyres are used by each team at every round.

The new directive states: "Under the supervision of the Technical Director, immediately before the start of the event, each team will be given a set of stickers. These stickers will be equal in number to the number of tyres allowed. It will be the duty of the teams’ mechanics to place these stickers on the side of the tyres before they are used on the track. These stickers will be made using an exclusive type of technology specifically realized for this purpose. The stickers will bear a number that identifies the rider (different to his official starting number) and will be changed for each race. FIM checks will take place both in the pit lane and at the single tyre supplier technical area."
