The 2024 World Superbike Championship has arrived at its 11th and final round of the season. After 33 races there are still three more to go and a World Champion to be crowned this weekend at Jerez.
Nicolo Bulega set a new Superbike all-time lap record at Jerez in Superpole. The Italian rider set an imperious pace around the circuit as he hopes to challenge for the World Superbike Championship.
It is best case scenario for the Championship as Toprak Razgatlioglu will start in second. The Turkish rider leads the standings but is hunting for more wins this weekend in Jerez.
