Navarra WorldSBK Test: Razgatlioglu fastest from Gerloff and Rea

Second in the WorldSBK championship Toprak Razgatlioglu finishes two-day Navarra test fastest from fellow Yamaha rider Garrett Gerloff and Jonathan Reꦍa.
The top three could barely be separated as +0.093s✃ covered their fastest times, while Andrea Locatelli was less than two tenths back in fourth.
For all 11 riders who participated in the test - HRC’ Alvaro Bautista and Leon Haslam present for the opening day only, it was a first opportunity to test out the Navarra circuit which hosts round seven on 20-22 A꧃ugust.
Ducati were the big headline team not in attendance, however, Scott Redding, Michael Rinaldi, Chaz Davies, Axel Bassani and Tito Rabat all enjo🧸yed a two-day private pre-seaso♛n test in Navarra.
Following his firs🍨t win of the 2021 season in race two at Misano, Razgatlioglu꧂ was quickest on both days whilst also setting the most number of laps - 190 - 52 more than Locatelli and Michael Van Der Mark.
Gerloff’s position of second on the timesheets will be a big boost for the American heading into Donington Park for round four, after what’s been anꦬ up-and-down start to the year.꧋
Winless last time out, six-time world champion Rea didn’t comple꧅te a full two-day schedule after missing the morning session on Monday, be♎fore he and the Kawasaki team decided to end their test early in order to keep testing time for later in the year.
Rea’s teammate Alex Lowes was fifth quickest +0.486s. Sixth was Van Der Mark, while Toℱm Sykes was a further three tenths back in seventh. Jonas Folger was eighth fastest for the Bonovo MGM Racing outfit, and Yamaha test rider 🌌Niccolo Canepa rounded out the top nine.
