Bulega's final round
The final round of the 2026 season also means the final round for Nicolo Bulega. The Italian had his world champion's photoshoot yesterday afternoon and spoke of the emotion of the upcoming weekend.
“It’s very emotional as it’s my last weekend here with WorldSBK and with my team," Bulega told WorldSBK.com.
"I remember a lot of things over these years.
"The last round of the season is always special, but this year it will be even more special.
"I had my first WorldSSP test here back in November 2021; after several years, we now close the circle here in WorldSBK. It’s been an amazing five years.
"It’s very emotional because I think about all the good things over the last five years with this team. Luckily, it’s been more nice moments than bad moments.
"There were very good years here in WorldSBK with this team. It will be the last race, but I will always stay in contact with this team, and I’ll be their biggest fan next year."
It's also Bulega's birthday today, the Italian is turning 27.
