The big three of Toprak Razgatlioglu, Jonathan Rea and Alvaro Bautista set the pace during Sunday morning warm-up for the 2022 World Superbike round at Donington Park.
Reigning champion Toprak Razgatlioglu, who sprang a surprise with a massive 6.4s lights to flag victory in race one and is now setting his sights on a first perfect triple, saved his best for last as he jumped to the top by a fraction over Rea, who finished second from pole on Saturday and was planning a return to his 'old faithful' set-up on his ZX-10RR today,
Ducati's title leader Bautista, under pressure after seeing his points lead cut to just 16 over Rea (and 54 over Razgatlioglu) after falling from second place yesterday, responded positively to complete a top three covered by just 0.123s.
Rea's team-mate Alex Lowes was best of the rest in fourth ahead of BMW's Scott Redding, the rider Lowes passed in the closing stages of race one for his first podium of the season.
The Donington Superpole race will start at 11am, followed by Race 2 at 2pm.
Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
