Alvaro Bautista made it mission virtually impossible for Toprak Razagtiloglu with pole po🌜situon as the Turkish rider could only manage seventh.

Alvaro Bautista has oꦇne hand on another world Superbike trophy after claiming pole in Jerez - his fourth of the season.

There was virtually no running in FP1 due to the🔯 weather so Razgatlioglu had begun the weekend ahead - on top with his FP2 time as Bautista slipped off in the same session.

Come Superpole it was a different story with the Aruba Ducati rider putitng down a statement of intent. Having already topped FP3 earlier on Saturday morning Bautista picked up where he left off, leaping up into the top spot once out on track, avoiding the damp spots o🥀n his qualif🅺ying tyres for a best of 1m 38.635s.

His tenth WSBK pole is also 𓃲his fourth of the season, equalling the total of Raz🎃gatlioglu.

It was Dominique Aegerter who came closest to besting the Spaniard. His final run for GYTR GRT Yamaha ൲took him t💎o second, 0.210s behind Bautista, with the two riders behind the 2022 Supersport and MotoE champion incredibly close on times.

Alex Lowes popped up into second late on, improving from 14th for Kawasaki, be𒀰𒐪ofre being shuffled back a spot.

Six time champion Jonathan R𝓀ea was one of a trio of riders who left for their final flying laps early, to avoid any yellow flag incidents, along with Scott Redding and Tito Rabat.

In good form, Rea gestured to invite Redding to follow. In provisional pole at the time, the Kawasaki rider improved his time to remain on top, taking Redding to third behind, but they perhaps went too soon as a flurry of better l👍aps were incomin♔g.

Rea finished his final qualifying in green in fourth for Kawasaki. It had proviosly 🎉been a quiet weekend from him, in 13th on combined times.The #45 will be the best placed BMW on the grid for the Rokit teaꦅm in eighth.

Ahead of the𓆏 Brit, Remy Gardner briefly got into second before he took found himself pushed back to fifth for GYTR GYT Yamaha.

Philipp Oettl 🧸also improved late on for sixth for Team GoEleven Ducatꦺi.

That saw Razgatlioglu left seventh as he pushed to the limit on ܫthe Yamaha but unable to find a reply when he needed it most to elongate his title hopes ove🍷r 0.5s slower at the chequered flag.

Spa🧜insh rounds have been a blot on the #54's strong qualifying form this season - his only lower start this season cam𓄧e at the Catalunya round in eighth on the grid.

After his huge Friday fall Garrett Gerloff reset himself and came back for ninth fo✨r Bonovo Action BMW. Andrea Locatelli completed the top ten times for Pata Yamaha.

Leandro Mercado (22nd) made a surprise late addition, joining the Petronas MIE Racing Honda Team as a late replacement for Eric Granado, who has lack of movement in his wrist after picking up a bone infection after his latest 🍰exit.
