A dramatic start to the second and final race day of the 2023 Indonesian World Superbike round ended with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu breaking 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista’s win streak in the Superpole Race. 

After winning the first four races of the season, Bautista was the heavy favourite to repeat as race winner. Ho♏wever, Razgatlioglu contorlled the 10-lap race꧑ despite a red flag as soon as lap two.

A crash involving 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Lowes, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Loris Baz - the BMW rider has been ruled out of Race 2 as a result - and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Danilo Petrucci was the cause of the red 𒐪flag, with Petrucci the only rider able to continue at the restart.

One lap later and more drama unfolded as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea crashed at turn tw♒o, which brought out another red⭕ flag.

Rea was able to make his way back to the pits in ord🌌er to 🍷re-join the action when it got underway for a third time, as did Lowes and Baz.

But then came the biggest race-changing moment as Rea, who closed in on Bautista for second place following the Ducati rider’s early battle with Razgatlioglu, endured a near-crash just after passing the wor🐈ld champion.
