Turkish Puccetti Racing – Razgatlioglu on the podium at Imola WorldSBK
In action today at the Enzo e Dino Ferrari track in #imola, Turkish Puccetti #racing took part in the Superpole and first SBK race making up the fifth round of the Superbike World Championship. Yesterday, #toprakrazgatlioglu put in an impressive performance, concluding the two practice sessions in fifth place, with a time of 1'47"124.
This morning, in cloudy conditions, the young Turkish rider completed the third and final free practice. He didn't improve on yesterday's time but nevertheless finished in sixth place.
In a Superpole that was interrupted by two red flags, due to crashes and technical issues, Toprak was unfortunately only able to improve slightly on his best time (1'47"169), thus closing in eleventh place. He therefore started from the fourth row of the grid in the afternoon's 19-lap race.
Razgatlioglu got away well and was already up to seventh place by the end of the first lap. Over the subsequent laps, Toprak picked up his pace and continued to make up places, soon reaching the leading group and starting to battle for third place along with three other riders. One at a time, the Turkish Puccetti #racing rider was able to pass them, moving into third place during the course of lap ten. In the final stages, factory Yamaha rider Van der Mark tried to attack but Razgatlioglu defended himself well to score his first podium result of the 2019 season so far.
Tomorrow Razgatlioglu will take part in the 10-lap Tissot Superpole Race followed by race 2, which will run over 19 laps like today's race.
