First look: Toprak Razgatlioglu makes public MotoGP debut at Valencia test
Three-time World Superbike champion Toprak Razgatlioglu made his public MotoGP debut at the Valencia test with Pramac Yamaha as he embarks on his career with the team. Pramac’s signing of the Turkish superstar for the 2025 season shocked the rider market earlier this year. Razgatlioglu had considered moving to MotoGP for years and finally decided to join Pramac due to their ties with Yamaha. Despite still being contracted to BMW, he tested with Yamaha privately at Aragon before his public debut. The session in Valencia was delayed due to track conditions, but Razgatlioglu managed to complete 10 laps with a best time of 1m32.472s. His move to MotoGP was influenced by his World Superbike success and his familiarity with Pirelli tires, which will be used in MotoGP from 2027.
