The 2013 Superbike World Championship season was the 26th season of the Superbike World Championship.

Tom Sykes has been crowned the 2013 World Superbike Champion after securing the third-place finish he needed to secure the title victory at Jerez.

Race calendar and results

The provisional race schedule was publicly announced by the FIM on 6 October 2012 with fourteen confirmed rounds and one other round pending confirmation.[1][2] On 15 January 2013 the Indian round was moved from 10 March to 17 November.[3]

On 8 March 2013, the FIM issued a definitive calendar, confirming rounds at Portimão and Imola that were previously subject to contract, as well as introducing a round at Istanbul Park in September to complete a 15-round calendar.[4] On 14 August 2013, the Indian round was cancelled due to "operational challenges" at the Buddh International Circuit.[5] The races at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca were held on two days; one race on Saturday, and one race on Sunday.[6]
