Razgatlioglu Triples And Takes Series Lead

BMW star extends Donington dominance to 12 wins, Bautista back on the podium

Toprak Razgatlioglu (ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team) won his third race at Donington Park to extend his record of individual race wins at this venue to 12, and take the championship lead – if by four points only.

He was just under three seconds ahead of Bulega in the final Donington Race, which he led throughout.

Nicolo Bulega (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) was second and came under late pressure from his own team-mate, Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) who was just over 0.1 seconds from second place after 23-laps.

Sam Lowes (ELF Marc VDS Racing Team Ducati) had looked good for a podium until he fell from second place as he chased the disappearing Razgatlioglu.

Fourth place, some ten seconds from the winner, was Andrea Locatelli (Pata Maxus Yamaha).

Danilo Petrucci (Barni Spark Racing Team Ducati) was a further 1.6 seconds back, in fifth, but a strong season-best ride to sixth place from Garrett Gerloff (Kawasaki WorldSBK Team) saw him just one second behind the Independent Team Ducati rider.

Despite an off-track excursion at the Foggy Esses, Andrea Iannone (Team Pata GoEleven Ducati) secured seventh place, ahead of Dominique Aegerter (GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team), Remy Gardner (GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team) and tenth placed Iker Lecuona (Honda HRC).

In the championship, after seven rounds and 21 races, Razgatlioglu has 345 points, Bulega 341 and Petrucci 209.
