Van Der Mark ended Race 2 in fourth position, one place behind Razgatlio❀glu who was beat𒈔en by Ducati for the first time all weekend after he also secured pole with a new lap record.
But for Van Der Markꩲ, who spent much of the last two seasons dealing with injuries, looked backꦏ to his best.
So much so that the Dutch ri𝕴der is hopeful of going even bౠetter at his home round in Assen next month.
Van Der Mark said: “It’d be really nice to get on the podium𝓰, it’s been a while! Honestly, we had a really strong weekend here ꩲand if we can do the same at Assen, with a little bit extra pressure, I hope to be on the podium there.”
One of the reasons for Van Der Mark’s improved results last weekend was his performance in Superpole whi🌜ch had previously been a strugglไe for him.
Van Der Mark was fourth fastest in Superpole, and now that the base of the M 1000 RR is stronger, the former Honda and Yamaha rider has more confidence as🐠 a result.
“I used to struggle a lot in Superpole but now we have such a good base and when we stick the Q tyre in, I feel like I can use the grip,” said Van Dꦿer Mark.
“It gives me a lot of꧑ꦆ confidence as well. I was surprised with my lap in Superpole but pretty happy with it.
“Toprak ꦏdid a bit more but I was happy with it. With the level in this field now, this is what 🐟you need.”
