Bulega lost another placไe on lap two to Remy Gardner, while Van Der Mark pushed Jonathan Rea down to seventh🦹.

Rea then dropped to eighth as Andrea 🥂Iannone made a swift move on the six-time world champion.

At the end of lap seven a change for the lead took place as Razgatlioglu went through at the final chicane. Then came🥂 a big twist as spots of rain began to fall at the start of lap nine.

With Ia🐼nnone beginning to catch the top four, Bautista regained the lead following a small mistake by Razgatlioglu.

In the thick of the title fight heading into Race 2, 🃏Alex Lowes suffered his first retirement of the season aftඣer a collision with Rea.

Unlike Lowes, Rea m🃏anaged to continue the race, however, it was another non-score for the Yamaha rider who dr𒅌opped down to 20th following the incident.

Comfortable with the dr𝐆ops of rain, Gardn🍌er produced back-to-back moves on Razgatlioglu and Bautista to lead at the end of lap 12.

Just as the rain stopped, Locatelli was the new r🐼ace leader although Bautista was beginning to mount another challenge.

After losing the lead to Bautista, Locatelli’s bid to become a first-time WorldS🍎BK race winner🏅 took a big impact as he ran wide at turn one.

The lead group then split in a big way when Rꦍazgatlio🌸glu got back to the front of the field.

Late pressure came his way due to Bautista being faster than the BMW rider in sectors two and three, but Razga🍨tlioglu held o🦂n for his first win around Assen.

Gardner came home third for a maiden WorldSBK podium, finishing to𓆏p of the Yamaha riders in the process.
