But the former Moto2 world champion put that disappointment behind him quickly to produce his best performance ever in the Super🧸bike clas🌠s.

Despite drama with rain and a big lead group, Gardner was immovable from the top positions as he battled hard against the likes of Alvaro Bautista🦂 and Toprak Raz❀gatlioglu.

A late attempt to take second away from Bautista was unsuccessful but 🦂the Australian was clear from any threat after dropping Andrea Iannone and fellow Yamaha rider Andrea Locatelli.

Speaking after breaking his podium drought, a relieve💖d Gardner said: "Finally! It was really tough last year even though w🉐e showed some speed and glimpses of hope. 

"The first few races definite෴lyꦕ didn’t go to plan. Even though we showed our speed, luck wasn’t and hasn’t been on our side. 

"Finally everything has come together and we𓃲 have had an amazing weekend. We have been fast all weekend and I think we could have had at least two podiums this weekend. 

"I can’t complain. We have finally b🎐roken the curse. It’s been a few years of a podium drought but it’s come to an end. 

"It was hard but hౠappy to spray some champagne again."

When light rain begꦿan to fall in Race 2, the lead changed hands multiple times as some riders began taking more risks.

But Gardner was one of those who stayed calm a𒉰nd ultimately had too much pace for the riders behind him.

"Everybody was closing the gas and me too," said Gardner. "It did feel a little bit scary 🔯at some points. 

"I didn’t do anything crazy and I♐ think a few guys took advantage. When Loka passed me then Iannone passed me. 

"But as soon as it started drying up I felt good and could open up thꦯe gap."

Although Gardner eventually secured his podium, the Superpole Race left the ex-MotoGP rider angry wi൲th himself.

Gardner added: "I was kicking ꦡmyself, man. Yesterday wa💯s just luck but I was kicking myself [today]. 

"Leaving the door open like that. I was kicking mys🔴elf. What an idiot I thought. 

"Alex [Lowes] rod🌞e a good race. It was an interesting race꧑ but the tyre was destroyed."
