The FIM has introduced a new technical inspection system using a seven-axis laser measuring arm at the World Superbike round in Magny-Cours. Fairing deviations from homologated production specs are permitted within a plus-or-minus 15mm tolerance. The equipment comes from global measurement leader Hexagon, with the process overseen by Ludovic Reignier, the FIM Superbike series' French technical director.

Racing's not really my world, so I'm just watching from the sidelines, but hearing that plus-or-minus 15mm is allowed actually sounds pretty loose to me. Scooter inspections back home never get into millimeter-level talk like that, so the sheer strictness of the racing world feels refreshingly different.

Does fairing shape really make that much of a difference?

The fact it's Hexagon equipment shows they're taking this seriously.

Curious to see which manufacturers get caught out once this starts running.

That plus-or-minus 15mm tolerance feels like exactly the kind of number teams will try to exploit.

Compared to the old days of eyeballing it with a tape measure, this is a different world.

Laser measurement down to the millimeter sounds dull, but it should genuinely improve fairness.
