The final preparation session at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve offers the World Supersport field 10 minutes to verify their Race 2 setups. The primary challenge of the "Rollercoaster" remains its highly technical nature; the riders must ensure their suspension settings are compliant enough to handle the violent elevation changes while remaining stiff enough for the high-speed Turn 15. The objective for the teams is to confirm tire pressure choices as the track temperature begins its climb toward the afternoon peak.

Strategically, the Sunday morning Warm Up is less about setting a "hero lap" and more about establishing a consistent rhythm. The goal for pole-sitter Federico Caricasulo is to confirm the electronics mapping on his ZXMOTO 820RR to ensure the new triple remains stable during long-run simulations. The tactical focus for Saturday’s Race 1 winner Valentin Debise and second-place finisher Jaume Masia is to fine-tune their braking markers for the downhill plunge into Turn 1. With the field separated by less than a second in most sessions, the ultimate goal is to find that final tenth of a second that could be the difference between a podium and a top-five finish.

Result Description
Jaume Masia signaled his intent to challenge for the Race 2 victory by topping the Warm Up session on Sunday, March 29, 2026. Masia’s objective was to regain the top spot after finishing second in Race 1, and he delivered a precise 1:43.102 to lead the session. His Orelac Racing VerdNatura Ducati appeared perfectly balanced through the undulating middle sector, maintaining a narrow but significant advantage over the rest of the pack.

The session demonstrated the incredible parity of the 2026 grid, with the top three manufacturers all represented at the front. Valentin Debise continued his stellar weekend for ZXMOTO by taking second, just 0.145 seconds behind Masia. Can Öncü, looking to bounce back from his Race 1 crash while leading, secured third place and showed consistent pace on his Yamaha. Albert Arenas and Federico Caricasulo rounded out the top five, both within three-tenths of the leader. The session was largely incident-free, as riders prioritized a clean run to preserve their equipment for the upcoming 17-lap finale.
