Another outstanding weekend for Aruba.it Racing - Ducati: Bulega takes his nineteenth successive win in WorldSBK. Lecuona completes a twelfth 1-2 triumph for the team

The fifth round of the 2026 WorldSBK season concludes with another triumph for the Aruba.it Racing – Ducati team.

At the Most circuit (Czech Republic), Nicolò Bulega and Iker Lecuona were once again the standout performers, first in the Superpole Race and then in Race 2, battling it out from the first lap to the last.
The Italian rider completes his fifth consecutive hat-trick. The Spaniard fought until the very last lap before finishing in P2

Nicolò Bulega (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati #11)
“I'm really happy. Nineteen consecutive wins? Yes, it's an incredible result, especially as we managed to win on a track that doesn't perfectly suit my riding style. I want to thank the team; it's a wonderful moment. And we want to keep it up at Aragon”

Iker Lecuona (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati #7)
“It's been a very positive weekend. We've taken a step forward compared to Balaton, as we were competitive throughout and closed the gap on Nicolò even further. It's a good moment; the feeling with my Ducati Panigale V4 R is fantastic. The next goal is to win a race”.
