Toprak Razgatlioglu, the winner of Race 2 WSBK France 2022, Jonathan Rea was involved in an incident with Alvaro Bautista at Turn 13
OtoRace.id – Surprises colored the results of Race 2 WSBK France 2022 which was carried out by Alvaro Bautista, Toprak Razgatlioglu, Jonathan Rea and Axel Bassani at the Magny-Cours circuit (11/9).
The reason is, the competition between Toprak Razgatlioglu, Jonathan Rea and Alvaro Bautista was colored by an incident at Turn 13 that affected the results of Race 2 WSBK France 2022 which was staged in hot conditions.
After the start, Toprak Razgatlioglu, who started from the first position, had to acknowledge the strength of Alvaro Bautista who eventually led the course of Race 2 WSBK France 2022 in first position.
But that position did not last long, because the struggle between the top three drivers in the 2022 WSBK standings was so heated.
Until finally at Turn 13, Jonathan Rea who tried to take over Alvaro Bautista’s position actually made the Ducati rider fall.
Rea actually made Bautista crash on the 2nd lap so he could not continue the race.
Meanwhile, Rea himself was thrown into 5th position and continued to run Race 2 WSBK France 2022.
Even so, Jonathan Rea was immediately given a Long Lap Penalty due to the incident.
