The Finish Line

It was a total celebration for one rider and an utter disaster for another in the penultimate World Supersport race at Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit.

Action, chaos, rain, sunshine, and the ultimate flag-to-flag race summarises World Superbike Race 1 return to Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit! Ultimately, it was Rea and Razgatlioglu’s early pit stop on lap 10 that may have just been the deciding factor to this spectacular Race 1 podium.

Our World Supersport riders only had 15 minutes to come to grips with a damp and drying track in the final Tissot Superpole of the 2022 Championship. In a session that had many talking points, you didn’t know where to look.

The sun has set on the final day of Friday Free Practice for the 2022 MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship, and things got a bit heated towards the later stages of FP2!

Friday Free Practice has concluded at the Grand Ridge Brewery Australian Round and it was Aruba.it Racing WorldSSP Team rider Nicolo Bulega who topped the combined standings. Bulega managed to pip Frederico Caricasulo’s best time by a marginal 0.040 seconds after the two 45-minute practice sessions.

It was Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK) who put in the fastest lap of the opening session. Rea put together his fastest lap when it mattered, finding 2 tenths to cross the line with a 1:31.284, just 0.022 seconds clear of Bautista.
