Danilo Petrucci won FIM Superbike World Championship Race One Saturday at Cremona Circuit, in Italy. Riding his Barni Spark Racing Team Ducati Panigale V4 R on Pirelli control tires, the Italian thrilled the home crowd by winning the red-flag-shortened 17-lap race by 2.590 seconds. The win makes Petrucci the only rider to have ever won a MotoGP race, a World Superbike race, a MotoAmerica Superbike race, and a stage of the Dakar Rally.
Rookie sensation Nicolo Bulega was the runner-up on his Aruba.it Racing Ducati and moved to within 35 points of Championship leader Toprak Razgatlioglu, who is out recovering from an injury.
Alvaro Bautista, Bulega’s teammate and the two-time and defending World Champion, placed third, 3.7 seconds behind Bulega.
Iker Lecuona was a close fourth on his Team HRC Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP.
