Since the system have invented everyone in Superbike, at the cost of messing with the flow of petrol and even weighing down the pilot feather weight, it is always the usual one who wins. At the BMW they reduced the fuel available, but Toprak Razgatlioglu cares: he opens the gas and dominates. It has been happening for a year and a half, with the entire paddock that does not see now that he removed himself going into MotoGP. For the Turkish ace all the slopes are special, but Magny Cours more than the others: here he baptized the first victory, in 2019 as an independent pilot Kawasaki. Six years, two world championships and 75 triumphs later, Toprak is always here to hammer. The races are now a monologue: in the three French races there has been only one overtaking for the primacy, in the sprint. But for statistics the number 1 BMW has made all 52 total laps in front, with clear advantage. Race 2 was the compliant copy of the previous ones: he dominated the last four rounds, with twelve pearls pitted in the face of everyone.
Ducati and Bulega on the ropes
Nicolò holds up and the virtue of limiting the damage the detachment in the standings is still affordable, that is 39 points. But given the pace it would take a technical cataclysm to put the Panigale V4 R back on track. The Ducati had begun the world championship making the big voice, capitalizing to the maximum the delay of preparation of the BMW put in difficulty by the ban on using the prototype frame exploited a year ago. In view of the final goal, the burst defeats take effect, but even more the detachments. In France Bulega caught 8 seconds from the leader, a very heavy passive.
Bimota another podium, Reviews Ra: sure you stop?
On the track there is only one leading actor, the others appeared. The third identical podium of the weekend in the Nievre also greeted the motorized Bimota well conducted by Alex Lowes: it hadn’t happened for 25 years. In the first half of heats the Jonathan Rea Of the beautiful times: Toprak and Bulega were out of reach, as for everyone else, but for several laps he dreamed of the podium in the long race that he never hit with Yamaha. The six times times worldwide is still a pilot Mr. and announcing the hallway he left more than a doubt in suspense. Like Tester and Wild Card, it would be an extra luxury for anyone … in the final, as well as Bimota, Jr65 had to give way to the official Ducati of the revived Alvaro Bautista and a Michael Van der Mark who every now and then remembers leading the BMW that with the other is mistaken the scene.
Next Superbike stop: Aragon
The World Cup stops three weeks, will resume at the end of September at the Aragon Motorland (27-28 September). On the Spanish track, the teams took tests a few weeks ago, so they will all come pulled to the dot. The championship will end in October, always in the Iberian peninsula, over the course of two weeks: Estoril (Portugal) 11-12 October and to follow the grand finale of Jerez (18-19 October). It is very easy to hypothesize that Toprak Razgatlioglu will not need to wait so long to celebrate the third world title, the second in a row with the BMW.
