WorldSBK championship le⭕ader Toprak Razgatlioglu is out of this weekend’s WorldSBK French Round after his FP2 crash.

The Turkish rider has been diagnosed with "mild traumatic pneumothorax", per an official WorldSBK communicat♉ion, resulting in him being 𝕴declared unfit for the rest of this weekend's French Round at Magny-Cours.

Razgatlioglu crashed during FP2 in braking for the penultimate corner. He lost the front in the left-hand sweeper that leads into the tight right-handed penultimate turn and slid to🥃rwards the in🌼side of the right-hander, hitting the inside wall.

It was the Turkish rider's first timed lap of the session after a disrupted first few minutes on Friday afternoon, which saw Razgatl♒ioglu's BMW M1000 RR have its fuel tank changed.

Razgatlioglu was🔯 able to walk away from the incident and reported to the medical 🦩centre where he was diagnosed with a back contusion.

He was then transported to Moulins Hospital for further assessments, and there the diagnosis of mild traumatic pn🌊eumothorax wa꧂s made.

According to Asthma and Lung UK, "A pneumothor♉ax is a collapsed lung. A pneumothorax happens when air leaks into the pleural cavity," the latter being "the space between the outside of your lung and your ri🦩bcage."

Razgatlioglu posted a selfie from his hospital bed with the caption🦂: "I'm fine now, they are doiไng final checks at the hospital."

His absenc♏e from this weekend's racing means his 13-race win streak will end.

But a 92-point championship lead means that Razgatlioglu is guaranteed to remain top of the standings൲ after Raꦯce 2 on Sunday.
