Toprak is beyond brave he has balls of steel even though Alvaro has the faster bike Toprak does everything he can to mix it what a beast...

[@engintozak1767]

yes

[@erginizer]

After watching this season, Toprak’s move to BMW reminds me Lewis Hamilton’s move to Mercedes from McLaren. Everybody was shocked and the general idea was that it was a bad decision. But Lewis had enough of McLaren not giving him a championship winning machine and moved to a constructor team with great financials and great mutual targets. Then he led an amazing winning project together with the team, won many championships. Let’s hope that becomes the case with Toprak because I believe he deserves it and let’s keep this comment here for the future 😊

Probably the same thing happen in MotoGP where Yamaha is slower on the straight lines, also the slowest MotoGP bike, despite having some of the greatest riders... If both bikes (Ducati & Yamaha) have the same performance (great cornering, fast on the straights), it would be more fun to watch.

If it wasn't for Alvaro being in WorldSBK, we'd be watching a Toprak dominance, probably for about 6 years of similar to what we had during Rea's dominant years. It was not entertaining... Not the least bit like what we have now.

[@gloriousmka9818]

Yamaha dominasyon yapacak kadar iyi bir makine üretmedi ama anlamadığınız nokta burası. Kawasaki yıllarca en dominant makineyi üretti. Şimdi de Ducati bunu yaptı. Ama Toprak yeteneğiyle korkusuzluğuyla bu işleri başardı. İnsanlar önce bunu anlasın. Toprak olmasa Yamaha podyuma bile çok zor çıkardı.

[@nuruddinadiguzel]

@DenizSasal Dude, if it continues like this, we will win the Bautista and Ducati championship for 6 years this time, just like in the last 2 years. Frankly, I can't find anyone to beat the Bau-Duc combination right now. Because their flatness speeds are incredible. Imagine that you are 5 seconds ahead at the beginning of the race, it is enough that Bautista has 10 laps left in front of you to catch you. That's how unfair the situation is.

Alvaro never passed Toprak, he just outdragged him. I thank Toprak alone for this performance but im not gonna pretend I wasn't very annoyed the whole race. Toprak would lose 4 tenths by the time they hit the start finish line, yet could still out brake Bautista! Bautista couldn't show a wheel because he's nowhere near as talented. He's got the title easily wrapped up. He only needs to finish to finish 14th in 1 race or 8th in superpole race even if he were to crash and sit out the last round, Toprak would still have to win all 3 races. Why won't Bautista show an actual overtake and not just use the power and size advantage? He saves the tyres better than anyone and the braking stability on his bike is unreal. Show me 1 time, he can do what Toprak did to him almost every lap!

If it was another rider from current rostrum from WorldSBK grid, he couldn't do what Bautista did against Toprak. Please do not lessen his achievements. Also, opponents give value to every victory. Therefore, as a package Ducati-Bautista deserves all the credits. AS FOR TOPRAK... He is one of the most talented riders in motorsports history. Currently noone can compate with him when all the conditions are equal. He is in another level and this is stated by all his rivals and authorities. Everybody knows what Toprak can do.

Merhaba, yorumunuzu düzelecek bur sözüm yok, anacak şartların eşit olması gerekiyor.Her zaman aynı kişi kazanacaksa yarısı izlemeye gerek yok, diğer sürücülere de yormaya gerek yok, en azından kilo aralığı şartı ve lastik konusunda serbest olmalı yani çift katmanlı lastikler.

[@altncmn]

@@halisbaysal4374 kuralların değişmesi konusu ayrı bir konu. Her kural sonuçta kendi adaletsizliğini de kamburunda getirir. Motor sporlarında özellikle ağırlık konusu büyük sorun olabiliyor. Bautista'nın hafifliği onun en büyük fiziksel avantajı. Bence de kural olarak standart motor artı yarışçı minimum ağırlığı olmalı. Bununla birlikte ağırlıkların her zaman bir eşitsizliği doğurması kaçınılmaz. Bautista ile Petruci arasındaki en büyük fark kilo bence. Identik motor kullanıyorlar. Belki Petruci daha iyi. Minimum ağırlık kuralı gelse yine kilolar ikisi arasında eşit olmayacak. Uğraşılan konu takımlar arasındaki farkı minimize etmek üzerine... Dorna anladığım kadarıyla acele etmek istemiyor. Çünkü bu tartışma onlar için bir PR özelliği. Toprak özelinde konuşacak olursam. Toprak'ın en iyi olması nedeniyle en iyi motorda yarışma olasılığı düşük. Çünkü en iyi motor en iyi yarışçıya ancak kaybettikçe ihtiyaç duyar. Toprak her zaman "underdog" denilen takımlara gidecek ve onları birinci yapacak. Onun için de en iyi takımda yarışan yarışçıdan beş kat on kat fazla kazanacak. Çünkü bazen teknolojiyle, bazen kuralla bazen de yarışçıyla durumu eşitlersin.

[@Chef_Viiito]

So watching these highlights from all the races in Portimao, I have observed that Ducati is so good in the corners. They lean so late in the corners. They lean a lot less compared to Yamaha. Hence they generate more speed. Especially in the final part of the final corner of the circuit, you can see Toprak is leaning in the corner while Bautista's bike is almost straight, generating speed and about to overtake the Yamaha, while Toprak's bike is still leaning. Ducati has worked so hard to make these unbelievable bikes. I just love them so much!!! Yamaha has to work very hard to develop the new V4 engine and improve their bikes. They need to start making street legal V4 bikes like Ducati and Aprilia does. This inline cylinder engine has turned out to be a hindrance for them. It will take many many years to develop a competitive bike but they should start developing now. We all know how long Ducati took to make these beautiful bikes. It takes time but it will be worth it and it will be fruitful for Yamaha and their fanboys. And I will conclude, there is no biker that can match Toprak. He's the GOAT 🐐 If anyone agrees with me or not about the Ducati, please leave a like and your comments. I'm happy to have a conversation.

[@nelocinco3836]

Finally someone with the same mind. I've been thinking about it for many years that if Yamaha start to have a V4 engine, it would be an amazing era for WSBK and MotoGP... Yamaha has been great on the corners, and always favoured by the greatest riders, but its only lacking is in the straight line speed...Hopefully Yamaha is in the process of developing, if not perfecting a V4 engine, which as well can run at higher RPM like Ducati. The Desmosedici technology is Ducati's secret, see what Yamaha will come up with.

Bautista knows the big advantage of the Ducati is straight line speed so he stands the bike up sooner to begin accelerating.

@@abhinavyadav13 He kept up on a more powerful machine. "Oooh, such talent!"... I understand why NASCAR standardized their cars so much after seeing that blatant discrepancy here.

[@Ariespradana13]

Thats why at 38 y.o Bautista are GREAT 🤩

[@dianaputri1926]

Mantap Toprak walaupun kalah power motor tp dia petarung yg hebat, mungkin kalian tau juaranya jika power motornya sama,, go Toprak good job,,,👍👍👍 suport from🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩,,,

[@Misguided20]

The best battle i ever seen my whole life

[@toddventura7191]

Toprak is KING of the brakes. Such a joy to see him ride and pushing it to the limit.

[@malsawmtluanga8249]

Toprak is the best but alvaro bike is beast

[@royalbee9088]

The competition between all of these men is empowering it's war out there but respect off the track is good too ❤

[@LeviAckerman-kv3ee]

Toprak is dancing with that Yamaha, imagine what a blast it would be if he rides that Ducati

[@agustinusrachmiyono1721]

Toprak , very much good on this race 👍👍👍👍👍

[@juanpayano8957]

It was my first time watching both races at Portimão, and my first time watching World Superbike Championship as well. Alvaro Bautista and Toprak Razgatlioglu were both battling for the lead back and forth lots of times. Alvaro beat Toprak twice. I understand Toprak's frustration, but he's good.

[@tuncaytogus9734]

Eşit koşullarda yarişmiyorlar. Toprak motorundan dolayi düzlükte yavaş kalıyor. Ama becerisinde dolayı da virajlara iyi giriyor. Diğeri düzlükte esip geçiyor. İkisi de eşit koşullarda yarişmiyorlar... Yoksa Toprak kesin alir

[@mtmertcanaydemir]

Bautista is a lucky driver who does not know how to take corners and only has straight speed and his own lightness, while Toprak is a real warrior and driver. You did your best, soil, you are great

[@dieternugel1745]

What a fight. The art of superbike racing. Just twoo great pilots.

[@rkenshin0]

congratulations Bau🏆. 2023 championship has done .Thanks and respect to TOPRAK for keep fighting and make a lot of excitements to us. you are the BEST RİDER in wsbk 👑. Next season who can keep up as championship as Toprak did against Ducati. Rea with brand new ride or other Kawasaki riders ? if doesn't have new rules or limit would be impossible. Toprak's aim in 2024 will be his season to takes podium not championship. That will be enough for him to show improvement of his ride and prepare for 2025 championship

[@prahfetts825]

Excellent commentary boys If it was possible to make this race any better with your commentary You did it energy was through the roof 👏🏽☝🏽

Thumbs up!👍

[@SN13K3R]

Commentary from James Toseland and Greg Haines is even better imo ;)

[@christophersimonlkw]

Awesome. That fight for all these rounds. That men got balls.

[@serkansari296]

Two excellent riders have never had a moment where I enjoyed it so much.

[@select20]

The only thing that saved Bautista was his mid corner speed and exit speed of that last corner. He was on the gas like a second earlier than Toprak at full lean. That is crazy.

[@bilalaturca]

That's weight and momentum for you, the lighter you are, the earlier you can open gas, you'll lowside if you are heavy..The ducati is excellent at corners, ignorants still think it's the bike from 5 years ago..the only bike having cornering problems is the BMW, they go wide all the time, Gerloff seems to have found a solution..

[@fqeagles21]

You miss the fact that Toprack wasn't able to put a big enough Gap in the twisty sectors where Yamaha were a lot stronger,hats off to Bautista ❤

[@kennethgez461]

@@fqeagles21because he drove the Yamaha above the limit and still managed not to crash

[@_Who_Am_I_And_Who_Are_You]

​@@kennethgez461you cant ride the bike above the limits you will crash. The Yamaha is better on cornering and braking than the Ducati. Alvaro did a great job in the first 3 sectors to even pass Toprak in the corners. Toprak stated Alvaro made the difference in sector 4, Alvaro was on the wheel of Toprak and had more trust to go earlier on the power to pass Toprak midway in the last corner and get a better drive out of the corner

[@kennethgez461]

@@_Who_Am_I_And_Who_Are_You Torsion, bending stiffness of the materials and also the chassis worked close to failure as this came across on TV, this is for me an overrun or at the edge of the possible. Where did you get your expertise? It's easier to get 100% out of 110% (Alvaro) than to get 99% out of 100% (Toprak). The V4 is generally way too strong no matter what you say because even Rinaldi won races here and there. Except Toprak, no Yamaha was involved in a possible victory.

[@diegofrancescocalvisi6935]

Both riders are exceptional, in my opinion. Perhaps Alvaro has the best motorbike, but he is the only one who can compete with Toprak and Johnatan for the title with it.

[@MimmoBirillo]

two fighters, two champions! Thanks for this battle

[@hordboy]

Sometimes when Toprak goes sailing into a corner, I feel it in the pit of my stomach! And I’m just sitting in my recliner. 😂 What a race.

[@tutu8682]

Toprak pembalap yang luar biasa... Motor yang beringas lah yang menyelamatkan bautista

[@nudgeA7]

Great race, greatshow, tnx guyz🎉

[@viclazo2839]

huge respect for these both guys - the highest art to ride a racing bike! 💪

[@oguztemel1978]

Toprak is totally on another level. Despite his disadvantages with weight, height and motorcycle, his talent and skills are flawless and he stands at the top of the food chain, the perfect racing predator. Bautista, Marquez and Pedrosa like racers have their anatomical advantages. This is by far one of the biggest reasons that they are successful in motorcycle racing. If the odds were the same, Toprak couldn't be beaten for a very long time. I'm sure he would've surpass Rea's record breaking championship.

[@user-ei9ng6zv8w]

ここ最近では1番熱いバトルでしたね

[@Ktm-jas]

Best race ever. Imagine these 2 on the same bike. Epic.

[@TolgaSAN]

AB will be lapped by Toprak if they ride the same bike...

[@clintonwoods6718]

What a race, what a dual absolutely incredible. Some of those moves by Toprak was astonishing. If both those riders had exchanged their bikes. Toprak would have won by a big margin.

This convinced me toprak should be in Moto GP It'll be a great shame if we never see him in Moto GP

[@RickyRisnandar]

with him moving to bmw, the chance is very slim imo.

[@gerryjamesedwards1227]

He did a few tests on the Yamaha MotoGP bike, and it didn't seem to suit him at all, he was pretty down on the idea of a move after that. It's a shame, as that is where I'd like to see him racing, too.

[@gloriousmka9818]

Both the Yamaha SBK team and the MotoGP team are terrible. I don't want to think about what difficulties Toprak and Fabio are going through. He was very angry with Yamaha and did not go to the GP. Months ago, there was news that he would go to the test, and yet Yamaha did not even adjust the seating position that Toprak wanted. He rode according to someone else's seating position and before he could feel the bike, it started to rain and the test stopped. Months later, they invited Toprak to test again, but again, they did not even make any adjustments that Toprak wanted to the M1 motorcycle. Can you drive a car or motorcycle based on someone else's driving settings and seat adjustment?

[@RickyRisnandar]

@@gloriousmka9818 agree with you, i get the sense that yamaha motogp didn't really consider him to ride their bike in the future.

[@danielgrayson4601]

Alvaro May of won the Championship but Toprak is the true champion! To be able to do the things he does with that bike it’s incredible and anyone who says any different obviously doesn’t ride. To pass another rider on a bend/corner under braking or accelerating requires so much more skill than to wind it on on the straight because you have the fastest bike. Even the commentators mention that Alvaro can be off his line going in to any bend/corner because he’s got the power to come out on top. Oh and just for the record before people start with the fanboy shit I’m a Jonathan Rea fan.

[@abdielabraar910]

you forgot the fact alvaro also need to keep up through all those corners

[@BTrain-is8ch]

Alvaro's last corner pass in race two was ridiculous and anyone that says any different doesn't spend much time on a race track. Toprak himself admitted that he didn't understand how or why Alvaro was able to do it.

[@jedw9983]

Toprak Razgatlıoğlu is more talented in the bends, Ducati is faster on the straight road.Because it looks so good.

[@Nourssignature]

What if the Spanish rider was on Yamaha...? he can never have a single win..., This is a Ducati powerful Engine success that makes the difference, and I Hope BMW 2024 bike will be better the R1, Toprak is the best WSBK rider

[@arvindbhandari3418]

same thing applies for Rinaldi he also has a ducati then why don't he perform as him
