Toprak Razgatlioglu w♉as part of a ten rider lineꦰ-up at this week’s final WorldSBK pre-season test of 2021 for Yamaha, Kawasaki and BMW.  

Most importantly for Razgatlioglu it 𓂃meant a return to action having missed the final day of the lone Official Wo🐟rldSBK organised test in early April at Barcelona, along with Yamaha’s private test nearly two weeks ago at Aragon. 

Until contracting Covid-19, Razgatlioglu was one of the standout rid🐬ers during the pre-season which comes after his best year yet in 2020 that saw him take three wins and six other podiums. 

But Razgatlioglu showed no lingering effects of the Covid-19 virus on his return at MotorLand Aragon, as he was thir🌼d quickest overall behind Jonathan Rea and Alex Lowes.  

"I was excited to be back on my Yamaha R1 after a long wait! Day one was ok, I enjoyed riding a lot, but♏ day two was a positive improvement after we tried some new parts to find a good set-up for the first race," said Razgatlioglu.  

"I felt the lap times were coming really good on the race tyres, but as always we will have to se𝓡e what happens in the races." 

The Turkish rider also believes he’s stronger headin🌄g into this season with Aragon proving to be one of the rounds that gave hꦯim the most problems.

Razgatlioglu said: "I thinkꦜ this year I am more strong, last year I was not fast at this track but this time I have improved physically and menta🐲lly. 

"The conditions have been quite hot, and to test some new parts in these conditions and find so🔜me improvements is🍬 good preparation. 

"Now we must put toge𓆉ther the best pack๊age, but I am happy to be back and I feel ready for the first race."
