B🐻autista became a back-to-back WorldSBK champion in 2023, and in so defended the 🧸#1 plate successfully after taking over as the top rider from Toprak Razgatlioglu in 2022.

But 2024 could be an even bigger year in terms of achievements which sounds crazy given tꦯhe stats Bautista am🉐assed last year.

• Rea: “In five years I don’t want to be here anym🅠ore” 
• Loc♋atelli on 2023 season: ‘I would like to restart from zero’

A 27-time race winner in 2ജ023, Bautista smashed the record of moꦐst wins in a season.

28 is the number Bautista will need🅠 in order to break that record for a second consecutive season, and he will have 36 races to do that in.

Although 🍎there’s been plenty of change up-and-down the Superbike grid, winning more than 77% of the races will be very difficult.&ಌnbsp;

But some records that are much more attainable include becoming Ducati’s most successful rider in WorldSBK from ꧂a wins perspective.

Bautista needs just one to move past Carl Fogarty, while winning a third title in⛦ succession would mean two things.

One being Ducati’s first-ever 🀅three-time champion on the bounce and th♐e other being the first Spaniard to achieve that same result.

If Bautista 🎉wins the 2024 Superbike title he will become only the third Ducati rider to have won more than two titles, joining Fogarty and Australian Troy Bayliss.
