Lap times from the Superpole session at the Dutch WorldSBK at Assen, round three of the 2026 season. Nicolo Bulega set pole position at Assen, his third from three round this season and his fourth in a row. The last rider to start the season with three successive pole positions was Jonathan Rea in 2021, and the last rider to set four pole positions in successions was Toprak Razgatlioglu in 2024. Sam Lowes was second, then Iker Lecuona completed a Ducati front row lockout - the Italian brand's third of the year. Neither was able to take advantage of a late crash from Bulega at turn one to deny the championship leader pole. Danilo Petrucci was again the top non-Ducati, as he had been on Friday, in fourth place. Xavi Vierge and Alex Lowes join him on the second row. Alvaro Bautista had his best qualifying of the year in seventh ahead of Andrea Locatelli and Lorenzo Baldassarri. Remy Gardner completed the top-10, ahead of Tommy Bridewell and Yari Montella who will join him on the fourth row.
