After just four full🔯 days of testing on the BMW, Razgatlioglu believes he’s nearly at 100% with the M 1000 RR.
Speaking to WorldSBK.com after day two, Razgatlioglu said: “It 🅷was a fantastic day as we did a very good job. I wasn’t focussed on the lap time but also on the race pace.
“After this te🍬st, we go to race and we need a good setup f🌳or the race. We are 99% ready to race. The feeling is good and every day, we are getting better as we keep improving the bike.
“Today, I did a 1’39.8 with the SC0 and did it three or four times. With the SCX, I did a 1’39.2 which is an꧒🅰 unbelievable lap time and I am really surprised.
“At the end of today, thanks to Bonovo, who we🅘⛄ asked for a Q tyre from, we got one but only improved by 0.1s.
“🐟We used a different swingarm for a short bike and put the SC𒆙Q but the bike was jumping around and there was a lot of wheelie. I couldn’t make a 1’38 but do next time we can!”
Race simulations have been a big area of focus for Razgatlioglu in testing, and it was this along with the continued 🌱set-u⛦p improvements that had him feeling confident about his chances going forward.
Razgatlioglu added: “I did a race simulation of 15 laps and did two lap times with the♚ SC0 in the 1’39s𒐪. It looks like we’re ready to race but we’re still learning and we need time.
“Every day, we improve but in general, I am happy. We’ll see at Phillip Island because it’s completely dif꧑fer✤ent, as is the grip.
“After Jerez, we st💃ill improved the bike and tried different parts, finally finding the setup. Finally, I fe🌞el like the bike is my bike.
“It’s 🌼my style, sliding a🍒nd with the grip improving too. The turning is not 100% but we are close. The team is very happy and the motivation is very high now; I’m happy with Michael, who did a very good job today.
“In the season, we’ll work together and makꦉe a very good race result. We need s🌱ome time to adapt the bike.”
