Live updates from the Superpole session at the 2026 Hungarian WorldSBK at Balaton Park.

Live coverage of the Superpole sessions at the 2026 Hungarian WorldSBK from Balaton Park is scheduled to start at 11:15 local time, with Race 1 to follow at 15:30.

Iker Lecuona was fastest in both Friday practices, but Nicolo Bulega set the weekend’s quickest time so far in this morning’s FP3, edging out his teammate by a tenth of a second.

Bulega identified the need to improve his performance in the chicanes despite strong pace, while Lecuona remained modest about his position as a favorite.

Ducati has shown a dominant performance this weekend, with the top-seven spots in yesterday’s FP2 all occupied by Ducati riders, both factory and satellite teams.

Sam Lowes led the satellite Ducati pack yesterday, but Lorenzo Baldassarri and Yari Montella surpassed him in this morning’s session. Miguel Oliveira also shone by securing a top-six position in FP3, being the fastest non-Ducati rider and introducing an updated fairing for better cornering ability.

Unfortunately, Jake Dixon continues to be absent from the event due to injury, and Yuki Kunii stepped in to debut in the World Superbike, currently finishing last in all sessions this weekend.
