Toprak Razgatlioglu returned to pole position in WorldSBK 🌄Superpole at the Estoril World Superbike roun🦋d.

The Turki✨sh rider was late to set a lap time, and didn't have one with six minutes to go. In three laps, Razgatlioglu improved to the second row, then to second place, and fi🌱nally to pole position in what was a drying session, but not one which ever threatened the need for slick tyres.

Danil💃o Petrucci almost reclaimed pole from Razgatlioglu with his final lap, but a mistake in the final sector cost him by 0.082 seconds. He's now finished second in all four sessions this weekend.

Jonathan Rea was third-fastest having set thജe early pace, and the only rider to join Petrucci and Razgatlioglu in the 1:52s.

Andrea Locatelli took fourth place, ahead of🌠 Nicolo Bulega and Michael van der Mark.

Sam Lowes was seventh-fastest ahead of Tarran Mackenzie, w𒁏ho once again displayed his wet weather proficiency. Alex Lowes finished the session ninth, despite crashing early on, before he'd set a lap time.

Axel Baꦬssani rounded out the top 10, ahead of Alvaro Bautista who crashed in the final two minutes at turn six. Andrea Iannone will complete r🎃ow four for Race 1 and Sunday morning's Superpole Race.
