  In an algebraic family of rational maps of $\mathbb{P}^1$, we show that, for
almost every parameter for the trace of the bifurcation current of a marked
critical value, the critical value is Collet-Eckmann. This extends previous
results of Graczyk and \'{S}wi\c{a}tek in the unicritical family, using Makarov
theorem. Our methods are based instead on ideas of laminar currents theory.
