It's victory for Alvaro Bautista in WorldSBK Race 2 at Aragon. Razgatlioglu hangs onto second place, albeit over three seconds back of the winner, and Nicolo Bulega seals third despite his early struggles.

Bautista reclaims the fastest lap. He's down to 1:48.3s now, and there's almost half a second separating the leaders again.

13:28

Bautista a couple of tenths faster than Razgatlioglu on lap 11 but there's still only a few tenths beween them.

Warm-up lap

The warm-up lap is underway in Aragon for WorldSBK Race 2, the final race of the weekend.

12:54

A win here for a Ducati rider would extend the manufacturer's winning run to eight races. Ducati has won every race since Nicolo Bulega took victory in the Magny-Cours Superpole Race, and they've achieved that streak with four riders: Bulega, Bautista, Danilo Petrucci, and Andrea Iannone.

12:52

We're without both Sam and Alex Lowes in this one. Sam crashed out of Race 1 yesterday and suffered left shoulder damager, while Alex crashed in the Superpole Race this morning suffering injuries to his lower left leg.

12:50

Toprak Razgatlioglu has gone 2-2 so far this weekend, and now sits on a 35-point lead over Nicolo Bulega, who starts third for this 18-lapper.

12:48

Alvaro Bautista starts on pole for this one. It's his first time starting from the front of the grid since Assen Race 2, thanks to his Superpole Race win earlier today.
