To♎prak Razgatlioglu says he is “lucky” to have escaped a crash on the opening day of the Phillip Island World Superbike test without any broken bones.

The reigning and two-time 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:WorldSBK Champion ended the opening day of the fi෴nal preseason test of 2025 third-fastest, but suffered a high-side on the exit of turn si🧔x during the morning.

The Turkish rider - one of two high-profile riders to crash during on Monday, with Jonathan Rea sustaining foot fractures in ℱa turn two cra෴sh -🅰 described the crash as “strange”, owing to the amount of throttle he was applying at the time of the crash.

“For meౠ, it was a very strange crash,” Razgatlioglu told WorldSBK.com.

“We checked the data, and I was at 39 per cent throttle when I had thꦺe high-side, because the traction wasn’t wo🐈rking properly.

“I don’t know why, even after talking with my🎶 electronics guy, and he also chec💜ked it. We still don’t know the reason, but anyway, it’s not too bad.

“I🐲’m lucky there are no broken bones, but I feel pain 🌄everywhere, especially in my hand.

“In the afternoon, we rode again because I needed to understand the b🉐ike better and work on the setup. By the end of the day, we had a good pace, understood the bike more, and found a good setup.🍒”

Looking ahead to the second and final day of th൲is week’s WorldSBK Phillip Island test, Razgatlioglu is keen to find some more pace from his BMW M1000 RR.

“Tomorrow will be anoไthe𓃲r day, and I hope we can find a better setup,” he said.

“Th♓e pace is okay for now, but I need a little more.

“I feel mꦜuch better for the race weekend because we have three or four days, so I’m 💎just focused on my bike, as we need a good setup.

“Everything se🦩ems to be going in 𓄧a positive direction, but the only disappointing thing was the strange start. Anyway, this is racing.”
