But the former Moto2 world champion put that disappointment behind him quickly to produce his bes🍬t performance ever in the Superbike class.

Despite drama ♐with rain and a big lead group, Gardner was immovable from the top positions as he battled hard against the likes of Al🥀varo Bautista and Toprak Razgatlioglu.

A late attempt to take second away from Bautista was unsuccessful but the Ausওtralian was clear from any threat after droppin💜g Andrea Iannone and fellow Yamaha rider Andrea Locatelli.

Speaking after breaking his podium drought, a relieved Gardner said: "Finally! It was 🎶really tough last 🎃year even though we showed some speed and glimpses of hope. 

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

"Finally everythi🐷ng has come together and we have had an amazing weekend. We have been fast all weekend and I t൩hink we could have had at least two podiums this weekend. 

"I can’t complain. We have finally broken the 🐻curs﷽e. It’s been a few years of a podium drought but it’s come to an end. 

"It was 🔴hard but hap🥀py to spray some champagne again."

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

But Gardner was one of tho𒀰se who stayed calm and ultimately had too much pace for the r🦂iders behind him.

"Everybodꦜy 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 p🐻assed me then Iannone passed me. 

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

Although Gardner eventually secured his꧋ po🅺dium, the Superpole Race left the ex-MotoGP rider angry with himself.

Gardner added: "I was ki🗹cking myself, man. Yesterday was just luck but I was kicking myself [today]. 

"Leaving the d𝔍oor open like that. I was kicking myself. What an idiot I thought.&nbs𒀰p;

"Alex [Lowes] rode a good race. It was an interesting race but the tyre🔜 was destroyed."
