168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu s🌠et a new World Superbikes lap record for 🔴Phillip Island in testing on Tuesday.

T♚he new BMW rider clocked a 1'28.511 lap to lay down a serious marker ahead of the new🐻 season.

The firs🌞t round of the WSBK season is in Australia this weekend.

Razgatlioglu overhauled Nicolo Bulega’s 1'28.58𝐆5 in the final minutes of testing on Tuesday.

Ducati’s Bulega had previously become the first WSBK rider to lap Phillip Island inside 1’28, posting a time of 1’2🌼8.890.

Razgatlioglu was&n♍ꦦbsp;0.220s behind Bulega in FP1 but then smashed the lap record (and his own pole record from last year) in FP2.

Razgatlioglu and teammate Michael van🃏 der Mark had worꩲked on chassis balance to preserve their tyres during the final preseason test.

“I was scared a lot because normally, I’m not really strong at this track,”&n💙bspꦓ;Razgatlioglu said.

🍃“I started very st✱rong, and the race pace is very, very strong.

“🦄However, the problem is the rear tyre. After ten laps, it’s♔ done.

“There’s a new surface with t♍oo much grip. I did a very good lap with the new lap reco🐻rd but for me, the race weekend is more important.

“I am o🌄nly focused on this. The feeling is very good but in general, I am very happy.”

Razgatlioglu won on his Yamaha debut four years ago and, this weekend, can repeat the t🐼rick on a BMW.

“It’s important to starꦑt with a good result,” he said.

“At the moment, I am thinking only about the ♛podium, but I hope I can fight for the win. It won’t be an e🍌asy race!

“We are working; we’re not at ꦚ100% now but we’ve started quickly.

“In general, it looks like everything is good. I’m excited ahead of the first race, so maybe after the first꧋ race, I’ll be more relaxed! It’s never easy to race here, especially wi🐠th the new tarmac.

“I think everyo🌊ne will e🐻njoy watching the races this weekend!”
