And after many, many overtakes to keep hold of the lead,꧂ Razgatlioglu thought he di𓃲d just that before a track limits infringement on the final lap.
“I passed the chequered flag in P1, this is good for me,” said ღRazgatlioglu. “I touched the green for track limits, but I didn’t understand as I f💜elt the bike sliding.
“Maybe, after sliding, I touched it. I didn’t gain an ad♑vantage, but rules are rules. For my last day with Yamaᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚha, I just tried to finish in a good position.
“I needed to try to have gꩵood memories of 🉐my last race and winning with Yamaha. I’m a little bit sad, but I did a very good job.
“I gave more than 100% just like at Portimao; I am really fighting with him. I needed some luck because, in the last two races, I didn’t have 🥀luck.
“I’m sad but generally happy for my last race with Ya🔜maha, because everybody could see I gave more than 100%.”
Yamaha ‘are a family’
Razgatlioglu will next be aboard a🐭 BMW after deciding to part ways with the Japanese manufacturer earlier this season.
But the 2021 WorldSBK champion did rule out reuniting wit⛦h Yamaha in the future wꦏhen speaking post race.
Razgatlioglu t♓old WorldSBK.com: “Thanks to my team because, after four years, I feel like Yamaha are like a family. Next year, I’ll go to a different brand, but I’ll still respect Yamaha because we have very nice memories: many wins, we are th🌄e world champions after a long time.
“Yamaha are very important to me. Not just Yamaha, but the whole team, all the guys. I really enjoyed working with these guys for the last four years, especially in the last two years. 2021, 🐼after we are world champions, I’m fe𝔍eling warmer. I will always respect Yamaha, especially the team.
“Everybody tried their best. This weekend, everyon🔯e from Yamaha was here and they came to see me in the last r🉐ace. I’m very happy for this.
“I’m sad because, after four years, this is the last race and next year we are no♏t together. Maybe we will work together again.”
