World Superbikes: Champion Toprak Razgatlioglu wins final race of season at Jerez

Newly-crowned two-time World Superbike champion Toprak Razgatlioglu has won the final race of the season at Jerez.

The Turkish rider, who clinched his second title on Saturday, defeated Ducati’s Nicolo Bulega – his nearest challenger in the standings – in an exciting race.

Razgatlioglu became the first BMW rider to win the World Superbike Championship as he added to the 2021 title he won with Yamaha.

Italian Bulega, who won Saturday’s opener and the Superpole race on Sunday, was hunting down his rival for the lead of the race with four laps remaining.

However, the race was red-flagged due to track conditions following an engine problem for Philipp Oettl’s Yamaha.
