Fastest in FP1, Razgatlioglu pushed hard fr♈om the outset of FP2 as he produced another ‘Toprak’ moment on the brakes.

As he braked for the final corner, the rear tyre of Razgatlioglu’s Yamaha lifted off the ground, only for the Turkish star to recover and make ♛the turn. 

Despite Razga⛦tlioglu’s impressive skills being put to the test, leading the way was again Rea as the six-time WorldSBK champion initially set a pace no one else could mat🗹ch. 

The Kawasaki rider immediately we🥂nt quicker than Razgatlioglu’s FP1 time thanks to a 1:27.355s - close to six tenths clear of Scott Redding. 

Axel Bassani encountered trouble in sector one as a mistake left th🦩e Italian ꦏneeding to avoid crashing in the gravel. 

With Rea looking dominant once again, the Northern Irishman’s mainꦓ title rivals Razgatlioglu and series leader Alvaro Bautista were unable to present a meaningful challenge during the early stages.  

As was the case in FP1, Michael Rinaldi appeared to be a match for Bautista for the first time this season. The Italian went third fastest,🔥 one spot ahead of Bautista. ✱;

Getting his braking right into🔜 the final corner, Razgatlioglu finally started showing the type of pace that could make him a potential race winner this weekend.

ꦬRazgatlioglu was the first rider to get within half a second of Rea after setting a time of 1:27.567s - +0.212s off the KRT rider.

N🌸ot the first rider to get angry whilst f💝ollowing Philipp Oettl, Razgatlioglu was seen hitting his helmet on several occasions with his left hand shortly after making the overtake on the German. 

But unlike Iker Lec🌃uona in FP1, it appeared as though Razgatlioglu was frustrate🍒d at himself and not with the Ducati rider. 

Endur🌠ing a similar off-track moment as Bassani did, Lucas Mahias had a heart-in-mouth situation as he ran through the gravel at turn eight. 

As Redding joined Razgatlioglu in reducing Rea’s adv♊antage over the rest of the field, Bautista was the next to improve a🎐s he went fourth quickest. 

Only a tenth down after three sectors, the Spaniaꦆrd lost almost four tenths in the fin🌼al part of the track. 

With the final flurry of laps underway, Alex Lowes jumped up to fourth place before Rea cemented his lead at the front by setting a time of 1:27.016s - again goi🗹ng half ꦅa second clear of the field. 

There was a late crash for Rinaldi as the Aruba.it Ducati♔ rider took a tumble at the final corner.
