Nicolo Bulega shines again at Phillip Island test, ‘but podium is not my target’
Nicolo Bulega has played down expectations heading intꦇo his first round as a WorldSBK rider.

After stunning performances at Jerez and Portimao, Nicolo Bulega continued his impressive pre-season by challenging 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu at the one-day WorldSBK test at Phillip Island.
Less than one tenth separated Razgatlioglu and Bulega, as the latter sh💝owed why ꦍmany expect him to be a contender for the podium, and even victory this weekend.

A crash at turn 4 scuppered Bulega’s running time but the Italian wa🎃s able to remount and return the damaged bike to the garage.
Speaking after the one-day test, ✃Bulega said: “I’m happy with this test because, from this morning, during the day, I improved my feeling with the bike, especially with used tyres.
“In the end, I didn’🅘t do a long run but some laps ♏together and I had a good pace. This is the most important thing at this test.
“In 💞the last test I had at Portimao, I was very fast with new tyres, but I had to work a little bit on used tyres. I’m very happy here because I improved this a lot.”
Bꦰulega’s pace throughout pre-season testing has been no༺thing short of sensational, whether it's’ over one lap or race simulations.
With Alvaro Bautista not showing the speed expected൲, Bulega has led Ducati’s charge in all three tests.
However, the reigning WorldSSP champio♔n is not expecting to fight for victory this weekenꦡd.
In fact, the podium is not ‘my targꦜet’ eithe🐬r, said Bulega following the final day of pre-season testing.
“I don’t have goals for this weekend, just to try to do my best and I will see what I can do,ღ” said Bulega. “I hope for a podium but it’s not my targe🐬t.”
