Bautista looks poised to win his second W🔯orldSBK title after his most recent victory at Most took him 74 p𒅌oints clear of Toprak Razgatlioglu with four rounds remaining. 

The reigning champion has won 18 out𝐆 of 23 races so far this season, and along with his Panigale V4 R have been a ne🔥ar unbeatable combination.

Other Ducati riders have also enjoyed success in terms of podiums and top fives, but Bautista has been the diffe🧔rence.

The same is true of Bulega in WorldSSP which is why the Italian is not only being linked with a switch to WorldSBK, buജt one that would see him join a full 🌼factory team. 

Bulega, who is the favourite to win the Aruba.it Ducati seat alongside Bautista for 2024, said this about his future at Most: "I just want to stay focused on my Championship as now, it’s the most important. The future is also important🌌 but I just want to focus on the present and let my manager and the team do their work." 

Rinaldi has been touted as an optiꦍon for Honda, and with Axel Bassani looking set to stay at Motoco🔜rsa, the door is firmly open for Bulega to make the jump.

A decision of who will be Bautista’s teammate is expected very soon, with team manager Ser𓆏afino Foti admitting it could arrive by thꦜe next round at Magny-Cours.

Bautista𒁏 himself has sp💧oken about the rumours surrounding the second seat at Aruba.it Ducati, and claimed Bulega deserves the chance to show his potential is Superbikes.

"I read the rumours; I think Bulega is a nice rider and h🅘e’s very fast, doing well in WorldSSP," said Bautista. 

"For sure, he wants to go to WorldSBK next year but I don’🏅t know where or with which team. He deserves an opportunity to come to WorldSBK and show his potential."
