Toprak Razgat🤪lioglu admits he could switch to MotoGP if he wins another🌺 World Superbike title, adding that ‘it could be perfect’ if he moved with BMW.

The Turkish star, world champion wi𓃲th Yamaha in 2021, has thrilled WorldSBK fans by putting BMW back on the top step with two wins from the opening six races of this season.

Throw iꦇn two other podiums, and Rꦫazgatlioglu looks set to fight for BMW’s long-awaited first WorldSBK crown.

Should hꩵe achieve that goal, the 27-year-old’s nജext contract could be in MotoGP.

“If I🍬 win the Superbike title, I could race in MotoGP in 2026 and I don’t rule that out,” Razgatlioglu told .

🧔“If I were to go to MotoGP it’s because I’m lookin🥂g for a stimulating challenge. 

"Obviously, it won’t🐟 be easy to jump into the other paddock, but we’ll see.”

Razgatlioglu took part in several private MotoGP tests for ✅ꦯYamaha early last year. 

Howꦗever, he didn't feel comfortable on the M1 and stepped away from a graꦏnd prix move by signing for BMW.

Meanwhile, BMW is now rumoured to be interested in taking over the ex-Su✃zuki MotoGP grid places when the premier-class technical regulations change in 2027.

“I would like BMW to go to MotoGP and I thin❀k it could be perfe♏ct,” Razgatlioglu said. “We will see what the future holds.

“But it cannot be ruled out that they could also remain here, 🌜in Superbike.”

Razgatlioglu starts this weekend’s Assen WorldSBK round holding fourth place in the world championship behind Nicolo Bulega (Ducati), Alvaro Bautista (Ducati) and Alex ♎Lowes (Kawasaki).
