Marc Marquez gives his verdict on Toprak Razgatlioglu’s MotoGP move
Marc Marquez welcomes Toprak Razgatlioglu to MotoGP, calling it a boost for the championship and noting the Turkish rider’s talents in Superbike racing. Yamaha signed Razgatlioglu to a two-year deal with the factory-supported Pramac team starting next season. Many in MotoGP have been anticipating this move for years due to Razgatlioglu’s skills. Marquez’s Ducati teammate Pecco Bagnaia believes it’s the right time for Razgatlioglu to make the switch, but warns of the adaptation challenges ahead. Razgatlioglu will need to adjust to MotoGP’s different dynamics before the switch to Pirelli tires in 2027, with Yamaha aiming to benefit from this transition in bike development. KTM’s Pedro Acosta is confident that Razgatlioglu will quickly find success in MotoGP, despite the potential challenges posed by the different style of racing and tires.
