World Superbike Championship leader Sylvain Guintoli is targeting more than two podium fin🍌ishes at Monza in Italy this weekend.

The Frenchman, who sits proudly on top the standings on 111 points after a superb start to the season on the factory Aprilia RS💖V4, also reckons the top speed record at Monza in within reach.

Kawasaki's Tom Sykes hit 210.9mph during free practice at the 𝐆Italian circuit in 2012 and Guintoli believes the RSV4 has the capacity to raise the🗹 bar even further.

🐼"I am very excited about riding my RSV4 in Monza," he said.

"We come here as ranking leaders, just as the 𒐪championship is getting heated up.

"I like this track and it suits t✃he Aprilia p🍸erfectly.

"Hopefully we can beat the all time Superbike top speed record and come back with two strong results."

Guintoli has finished on the rostrum in five of the six races he🐎ld so far, winning at Phillip Island in February and finishing as the ru𓄧nner-up at the Australian venue.
