The UK Round weekend ended in Ducati’s favor, which after another weekend dominated by the riders of the Borgo Panigale factory reached a double, very important milestone. In the world championship reserved for teams, Ducati-Aruba.it mathematically secured the world title thanks to the double victory of Nicolò Bulega and the first of the season (and in Superbike) by Iker Lecuona, the latter having broken Bulega’s record of 25 consecutive wins. At the same time, Ducati can celebrate the Constructors’ Championship with four rounds remaining in the 2026 season. With a 276-point deficit from this year’s champions, Bimota can no longer keep the fight for the lead alive, with Superbike now starting the summer break with the last unknown being the name of the rider who will be crowned 2026 world champion. The big favorite, almost a foregone conclusion, seems to be the already mentioned Bulega, leader of the standings with a 133-point gap over Lecuona, the only rider so far capable of standing on the top step of the podium this season outside of Bulega.
