WorldSBK heads to Estoril for the penultimate round of the 2026 season with all three titles wrapped up.
Nicolo Bulega, who will move across to MotoGP in 2027, was crowned riders' champion at Cremona two weeks ago, becoming the first rider in history to win both the WorldSSP and WorldSBK World Championships.
Ducati also wrapped up the manufacturers' title, while its factory squad were crowned teams' champions at Donington.
Despite the silverware being wrapped up, there's still plenty to play for as WorldSBK ventures to Portugal.
Yari Montella has a firm grasp of third spot in the standings, but he is being chased by brothers Alex Lowes and Sam Lowes, who trail the Italian by 43 points and 50 points respectively.
Montella just needs to extend his advantage over the Lowes twins by 20 points across the weekend in Estoril to secure third in the championship.
In the betting, unsurprisingly it's world champion Bulega who heads the betting to emerge triumphant in Race 1.
The Italian, who was once dubbed the 'next Valentino Rossi', has rewrote the history books in an extraordinary campaign that's witnessed him achieve 26 victories in 30 races.
Runner-up in the championship, Iker Lecuona, is the only rider to have beaten Bulega in the championship having achieved a clean sweep in Italy last time out.
Alberto Surra, who demonstrated great pace in the first practice session, is third in the betting after it was announced he will be retained by Motocorsa for the 2027 season.
