French World Superbike FP1 Results: Razgatlioglu leads BMW 1-2-3
Full results from🍒 the FP1 session at the French 🏅World Superbike.

Toprak Razgatliogl𒆙u ended WorldSBK FP1 fastest overall, over 0.3 seconds ahead of Garrett Gerloff.
In fact, it was a BMW 1-2-3 in FP1 in France, with Michael van der Mark in th🐻ird place.
For much of the session, Razgatlioglu had an advantage of over one second, and although Gerloff trimmed that to 0.3 seconds by the end of the session, a high-1:36 had become a consist🌱ent pace for Raᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚzgatlioglu by then.
In the end, the top six were all within a second of Razgatlioglu's best ti♒🥃me, with Nicolo Bulega, Alvaro Bautista, and Alex Lowes all within that boundary.
Completing the top 10 were Michael Ruben Rinaldi, Jonathan Rea, Danilo Petru🙈cci, and Scott Redding.
Sam Lowes returns to action this weekend after missing Portimao through injury. He finished FP1 in 19th and over two seconds🐼 off the pace.
Tarran Mackenzie also returns this weekend, having been out of action for two months. ♏He finished 21st and 3.262 seconds off the pace.
Dominique Aegerter is not competing this weekend having been ꦰinjured in a motocross training crash last week. He's replaced by Alessandro Delbianco for this🧔 weekend, the Italian ending Friday morning in 22nd, and 3.720 seconds off the pace.
