The opening round of the 2025 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:World Superbike Championship marked a milestone for Nicolo Bulega, who won all three races of a Wor𝐆ldSBK round for tꦗhe first time in his career.

The Italian won both Sunday races by o💃ver two seconds, ahead of Andrea Iannone in the Superpole Race, and of Alvaro Bautista in Race 2, and now carries a 26-point champဣionship lead over the Spaniard.

“I’m really happy because this is🌱 my first hat-trick in Superbike,” Bulega told WorldSBK.com after Race 2.

“It’s incredible, an amazing feel꧒ing to do it in my favourite track – it’s something special. No♏w I want to go back home to celebrate.”

Bulega said that he was “proud” of the work he has done with his team this week i꧑n Australia, praising the performance of his bike from the beginning of the pre-event test on Monday until the third and final race of the weekend on Sunday.

“I feel very good, very proud of what me and my team did because my bike was perfect from Monday’s test until Sunday and the last lap of 🌠Race 2,꧋” he said.

“I was able to push every lap of this week, I enjoyeꦛd riding e♐very lap.”

Despite his multiple-second winning margins in all three races, Bulega s꧙till had his moments, including in Race 2 when he nearly crashed at turn four.

“I braked a bit more inside at⛎ turn four,” he explained, “and wiꦬth the knee slider I touched a bit the kerb that is a bit taller than the asphalt and it moves a lot my leg because it blocks my leg on the kerbs.

“When I opened my leg I lost the front and I almost crashed – I made a not bad save with th🐟e knee!”

Round two of the season takes the series back to Euro☂pe and to P๊ortugal’s Autodromo Internacional do Algarve, where last year Bulega came up narrowly short of victory versus Toprak Razgatlioglu despite suffering with illness that weekend.

“I’m confident, becaus🔜e last year in Portimao I finished second with a lot of fever, so I think we can be competitive again,” he said.

“I think it will be not so easy because Toprak [Razgatlioglu] especially will be very fast in Portimao, but also Alvaro 💃[Bautista] and other riders.

“So, I will try to maintain this level, but I think it’s very diff🏅icult.”
