2025 Spanish WorldSBK: Superpole Race Results
Full results from the Superpole Race at the 2025 Spanish WorldSBK.
Results from the Superpole Race at the 2025 Spanish WorldSBK from Jerez.
Nicolo Bulega took victory in the Jerez Superpole Race, but in controversial fashion.
Toprak Razgatlioglu made the holeshot at turn one, but Bulega made the same move as Race 1, cutting inside the BMW rider at turn five on the opening lap. Where Saturday he made it cleanly, in the Superpole Race he did not, making contact with Razgatlioglu that resulted in the Turkish rider crashing out.
Bulega received a long lap penalty for the contact. He rejoined from taking it still almost two seconds in the lead. He would go on to win by four seconds over Alvaro Bautista.
Andrea Iannone completed the podium, his first rostrum finish since Phillip Island.
Xavi Vierge was a season-best fourth ahead of Alex Lowes, then Andrea Locatelli completed the top-six.
Tarran Mackenzie was seventh ahead of Iker Lecuona and Michael van der Mark who took the final points.
Axel Bassani completed the top-10.
The first lap also saw a crash for Remy Gardner and Jonathan Rea at turn three. Both riders were taken to the medical centre.
