168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu was victorious for the second consecutive WorldSBK round, after taking his BMW M 1000 RR to top spot in Rꦆace 2.

After a disappointing Superpole Race where he slid back from the front row to fifth, Razgatlioglu madওe swift progress in the other direction. 

Razgatlioglu joined the lead group from lap one and never lost sight of the lead despite light ra🐠in falling for much of the 21-lap race.

When polesitter Alvaro Bautista retook the lead just after mid-race distance, the expectations were that he could begin to pull clear folloꦅ♎wing his dominant performance in the Superpole Race.

However, Razgatlioglu ha🍰d other ideas as he instead made a quick move before🌺 slowly pulling away.

Bautista did everything in his power to mount a late challenge, but with Razgatlioglu quicker than the reigning world champion in the most critical areas of the circuit, the Ducati rider was close to a mistake on the final lap as Razgatli꧒oglu closed to within 6 points of the Spaniard in the standings.

After the race, many fans were chanting Razgatlioglu’s name: “Everyone started to sing ‘Toprak, Toprak’ and I almost cried; many people come to supp🧜ort me and not just from Turkey but from all of Europe,” said Razgatlioglu.

“The Turkish guys come and♔ it’s family but it’s really important because I feel the power, so I 💞needed to win this race to give them a present.

“I was just fighting for this. After the race, I was almost crying becau✤se of people shouting ‘Toprak’.

“Germany is close to Assen and a lot of people came from there; I’m happy😼 for this and I think it’ll be bigger iꦇn the future.

“It’s good for the championship too with everyone enjoying it. It’s been a very spe💃cial weekend for me to win here and with BM𓂃W.”
