Lap times from the FP1 and FP2 sessions at the Dutch WorldSBK at Assen, round three of the 2026 season.
Nicolo Bulega topped both practices on Friday in Assen. For most of the day he was the only rider in the 1:33s, but Lorenzo Baldassarri joined him in going sub-1:34 on his penultimate lap of the afternoon session.
Iker Lecuona made it an all-Ducati top-three, and there were four other Panigale riders in the top-10: Sam Lowes in sixth, Alvaro Bautista eighth, Yari Montella ninth, and Alberto Surra 10th.
Danilo Petrucci and Xavi Vierge rounded out the top-five, and Alex Lowes was the third and final non-Ducati rider in the top-10.
