Reigning world champion Toprak Razgatlioglu is the next big hope for an SBK-to-MotoGP winner, the Turkish star recently testing an M1 even though he won’t now have a chance of a MotoGP race seat until 2024.
“It depends on which bike he is going to ride, but he is an incredible talent.
Danilo Petrucci , American Superbike, race 2, Grand Prix of the Americas, 10 April
MotoAmerica instinct vs MotoGP method
After the Dakar came another bold new challenge in the form of MotoAmerica, where Petrucci is currently leading the standings for Warhorse Ducati after five of ten rounds.
“In MotoAmerica I’m having fun because you can make the extra difference by braking as hard as hell, or going into the corner even if the bike is moving and shaking and still get pole position,” he said.
“You can still use your strengths, your instincts. In MotoGP now you need to use a lot of method. It’s not natural. But for sure, I miss riding the fastest bikes in the world!”
