We’re well aware of Toprak Razgatlioglu’s acrobatic skills. He’s capable of pulling off circus-like stunts on any two-wheeled vehicle. We hadn’t seen him in action in the MotoGP yet, but we got the chance in Jerez during the second Free Practice session. On the wet track, his M1 decided to lie down at Turn 13, but Toprak had other ideas.
The result was a spectacular save, and the Turkish rider avoided a fall by using his arm and elbow. It was an applause-worthy performance, especially for the mechanics, who were spared some extra work.
