The 2026 WorldSBK season heads to Italy, with the Cremona Circuit hosting one of the year’s most anticipated rounds.
Nicolò Bulega, current leader of the WorldSBK standings, has three match points to secure the world title. But the challenge is far from over: he will also have to contend with teammate Iker Lecuona, who is determined to return to the top step after his Race 1 victory at Donington.
An action-packed weekend awaits, with Ducatisti and a packed grandstand ready to set the scene for one of the season’s most exciting rounds.

“Pressure? Honestly, no. I am just really happy we are back racing in Italy and have the chance to clinch the title here in front of our local fans. It will be a very emotional weekend, and I hope to be able to celebrate it on Sunday together with my fans, friends and family, and of course all of my team”.

“We’ve got great expectations heading into the Italian Round, here in Cremona. Our goal remains the same: to start well on Friday and then improve, session after session. About Bulega’s World Title, I think he will clinch it this weekend, but this doesn’t change my approach towards the race”.
