Nicolo Bulega snatched pole from factory teammate Lecuona on his final Superpole lap, a stunning 1 minute 38.495 seconds that smashed the previous lap record by over half a second. Montella completed an all Ducati front row in third, with Oliveira fourth and Lowes fifth. Bulega has never won a WorldSBK race at Portimao. He starts today from pole position.
