After a distant third on Saturday, pole qualifier Jonathan Rea put Kawasaki back on top during a dry Sunday morning warm-up at the 2023 Donington Park World Superbike round.
Rea moved ahead of the Ducatis of Michael Rinaldi and Race 1 winner Alvaro Bautista in the closing stages of the 15-minute session, which many riders used as a rehearsal for the upcoming Superpole race by completing a run of 8-10 consecutive laps.
Saturday's runner-up Toprak Razgatlioglu was fourth ahead of Yamaha team-mate Andrea Locatelli, with Rea's team-mate Alex Lowes the final rider in the top six.
The Superpole race, when some riders are tipped to gamble on the soft SCX tyre, starts at 13:00 with Race 2 at 16:00 local time.
Donington Park has been resurfaced since the 2022 event, where Toprak Razgatlioglu took all three wins and eventual champion Alvaro Bautista suffered a rare retirement and managed just one podium.

Race 2 winner: Toprak Razgatlioglu TUR Yamaha
