After topping the opening day of the WorldSꦗBK Phillip Island test by almost half-a-second, Nicolo Bulega more or less maintained his advantage on day two, leaving him optimistic ahead of the first round of the 2025 season this weekend.

Bulega was 0.498 seconds ahead🙈 of Andrea Iannone on Monday, and by the end of Tuesday the Go Eleven rider was only marginally closer at 0.482 seconds behind his compatriot.

It’s a sizeable advantage for Bulega to head into the Australian Round with, almost one year on from his on-debut maiden 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:World Superbike victory.

“I improved the feeling from yesterday, which was already good, so I think we have a strong pack♉age to start the race weekend,” Bulega said at the end of the second and final day of the test.

“I'm happy with how the bike feels – everything i🐻s working well at the moment. Of course, we still have room for improvement, but I’ve already made a s🍨mall step forward from yesterday, and if we can take another, that would be great.”

Despite the positive test, Bulega was not getting carried away ahead of th🌄e first round of the new season this weekend.

“Testing is one thing – it’s important to have a good feeling, but, at the end of the day, you do꧅n’t score points in testing.

“I’ll start Friday with a positive mindset, knowing💧 we have a str🥂ong package, I feel good at this circuit, and the bike is working well here. Hopefully, we can keep this momentum going and improve a little more.

“I’m really looking forward to the first race of the year. I have to admit, I don’t enjoy testing that much; I prefer race💯 weekends. Testing can get a bit boring, so I’m reall🧸y excited to start racing.”
