Supersoft E0126 the winning choice, even in Cremona’s heat
 
“In the first Cremona race, the newly-developed E0126 supersoft confirmed itself as a wining choice, both in terms of performance and consistency over the distance. Compared to the Assen round, where it made its debut, today the track temperature was 14°C higher, and all the riders on the grid chose this specification for the start. Ducati and Bulega were the most capable of finding an effective set-up and make the most of the tyre’s qualities, taking a well-deserved victory that was anything but obvious, given the close battle with Razgatlıoğlu for most of the race. Toprak pushed his BMW to the fullest to keep his chances alive, and set the fastest lap of the race on lap nine. The high temperatures and a track that was not perfectly rubberised – due to the pollen deposited during the night – put the teams to the test in finding the most effective configuration for their bikes, but with the SC1 front and rear E0126 combination, the fans witnessed a race full of overtaking and comebacks. The SCQ performance was also excellent, with Bulega taking pole position, retouching the all-time lap record by almost a tenth.”
