Results from the Superpole Race at the 2026 Emilia-Romagna WorldSBK.

Nicolo Bulega continued his WorldSBK win streak in the Misano Superpole Race, beating Iker Lecuona by one second. Yari Montella completed the podium.

Alberto Surra had been running in fourth place after a retirement for Alex Lowes, but he ran wide at turn 14 and dropped behind Axel Bassani. The Italian rejoined just in front of Miguel Oliveira in what was judged to be an unsafe manner. Surra was given a drop one position penalty as a result, but did not serve it in the one lap he had. Oliveira also dropped back on the final lap at turn 14 and crossed the line seventh behind Lorenzo Baldassarri. Baldassarri and Oliveira both gained a place after the race when Surra's penalty was converted to a three-second time penalty.

Behind Surra, Andrea Locatelli and Tarran Mackenzie took the final two points positions. Stefano Manzi completed the top-10.
