The 2024 MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship has touched down at the Cremona Circuit for the ninth round of the season and morning Warm Up provided us the latest look at the order ahead of two races on Sunday. Continuing in fine form from his first-ever win on Saturday, Danilo Petrucci (Barni Spark Racing Team) topped the Warm Up session, aiming to add to his new column of win tallies.

Petrucci set the pace throughout the session, going into the rest of Sunday with a three-tenth advantage over Alex Lowes (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK) and Andrea Iannone (Team GoEleven), who came into the top three at the end of the session. Nicolo Bulega (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) could be the Championship leader if he wins both races today and he started the day in P4. Fifth place went to Axel Bassani (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK), once again strong in Warm Up.

P3 overall in the standings, Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) took P6 ahead of Sam Lowes (ELF Marc VDS Racing Team) and Iker Lecuona (Team HRC), continuing Honda’s solid efforts. Scott Redding (Bonovo Action BMW) was top BMW in P9 whilst Andrea Locatelli (Pata Prometeon Yamaha) made it five manufacturers inside the top ten.
