Althea’s Federico Caricasulo celebrated his first WorldSSP victory in four years following Sunday’s race-long battle in Indonesia. A trio of Italians completed the Mandalika podium after Ten Kate Yamaha’s Stefano Manzi and Aruba Ducati’s Nicolo Bulega enjoyed a late race charge.

The number 62 losing out on the final lap to the Ravenna rider. A slight delay to Sunday’s Supersport race gave way to 18 laps around the 4.3km Lombok layout as Bulega launched from pole.

Caricasulo trailing his fellow Ducati man with Puccetti Kawasaki’s Can Öncü behind before he captured the Althea for second.

Orelac Ducati’s Raffaela de Rosa ran fourth as the action unfolded. Manzi up to fifth from tenth on the grid as GMT94’s Valentin Debise crashed out.
