The current record
After the first three rounds of the 2026 Superbike World Championship, the same rider has always stood on the top step of the podium in all races: Nicolò Bulega. Moreover, the leader of the Emilian world championship, who set the best time in every Superpole, had also won the last races of the previous season, with victories that allowed him to reach thirteen consecutive wins in the last Round at Assen.

The goals in Hungary
For the Aruba.it – Ducati team rider, it was a historic result, which could become unique on this weekend at Balaton Park, during the Hungarian Round. If Bulega were to repeat himself in race 1 as well, in fact, the 26-year-old would become the rider with the most consecutive wins, surpassing the milestone previously set in Superbike by three-time world champion Toprak Razgatlioglu. Additionally, if he were to triumph in the next two races (Superpole Race and Race 2), Bulega would surpass the record held by a former Aruba.it team rider: Alvaro Bautista. The Spaniard, in 2019, was able to achieve as many as 11 consecutive wins from the start of the championship.

Not just wins
In case he does not manage to get a win, there would still be the chance to equal another record: three podium finishes at Balaton Park would allow him to celebrate for the 25th consecutive time in the top three, reaching the top of this special ranking not only with Razgatlioglu, once again, but also Colin Edwards.
