WSBK Superbike Estoril Warm Up: Toprak wins during the warm-up

De Paul Gozzi / Corsedimoto.com

Toprak doesn't stop and wins the warm-up as well. The World Constructors' Championship remains open, Redding and Rea start from the back in the Superpole Race at 12 p.m.

Soil Razgatlıoğlu was the fastest during the fifteen minutes of warm-up of the last act of Superbike 2020 in Estoril. The Turkish driver dominated race 1 on Saturday and today he will attempt the pass of three in the two challenges which start at 12:00 p.m. (10 laps) and 16:15 p.m. (21 laps). Toprak lapped 68 thousandths faster than Scott Redding, with new champion Jonathan Rea proving third quickest, two tenths behind. In the Superpole Race, the British Ducati rider will start from last place, having not recorded a time in qualifying, while Jonathan Rea is on the fifth row (15th position). Over a distance of just ten laps, they are unlikely to attack the Yamaha, but they will try to move into the top nine positions that define the first three rows of the Race 2 grid.

The Manufacturers' Championship is open 
Jonathan Rea has already closed the debates in the Superbike drivers' championship, but that of the manufacturers remains open. Kawasaki starts with 19 points ahead of Ducati, while 37 are still to be awarded. The mission for the riders in red is therefore very difficult, but Chaz Davies went very quickly on Saturday, so… who knows. In the warm-up, the Welshman set the fifth fastest time, with Michael Rinaldi tenth. Chaz Davies, “fired” by Ducati to make way for the 25-year-old Rimini rider, has no bike in 2021.

Look at the schedules 

Race 2 was postponed to 16:15 p.m. so as not to overlap with the MotoGP race, which takes place in Aragón and was postponed to 15 p.m.
