Bautista became a back-to-back WorldSBK champion in 2023, and in so defended the #1 plate successfully after taking over as the top ri🍌der from Toprak Razgatlioglu in 2022.

But 2024 could be an even bigger year in terms of achievements which sounds cr⛎azy given the stats Bautista amassed last year.

A 27-time race winner in 2023, Bautista smashed the record of most wins in a s💜eason.

28 is the number Bautista will need in order to break that record for a ꦚsecond consecutive season, and he will have 36 races to do that in.

Although there’s be♑en plenty of change up-and-down the Superbike grid, winning more than 77% of the races will be very difficult. 

But some records that are much more attainable include becoming Ducati’s most successful rider in WorldSBK from a wins 💞perspective.

Bautista needs just one to move past Carl F▨ogarty, while winning a third title in succession wouldಞ mean two things.

One being 💮Ducati’s first-ever three-time champion on the bounce and the othe🐽r being the first Spaniard to achieve that same result.

If B൲autista wins the 2024 Superbike title he will become only the third Ducati rider to have won more than two titles, joining Fogarty and Australian Troy Bayliss.
