The lead three split with a fierce battle for position over the sprint distance, which✤ allowed Bꦬassani to keep in touch as the duo ahead traded fastest laps.

As the limited laps ticked off Razgatlioglu pulled the pin to lead over the line by 1.203s, celebrating by collecting a T💯urkish flag to tour around with, before losing it as he celebrated his fifth win at the Cze🍰ch track in eight races.

With a victory at Autodrom Most in his 399th start, Rea didn’t set a time in warm-up a🍸s extreme changes were made to his Kawasaki overnight, continuing to right before the race start.

Those alterations paid off as the Northern Irish rider kept a second win in his sights right to last lap for a🍷 superb second in his 400th 🅠race.

Bautista battles back for podium

Alvaro Bautista arrived in the Czech Republic in the hunt for his 50th WSBK win. Launching from 🙈down in 14th the reigning champion had the odds again stacked against him, but with a preferred tyre underneath him and no need for the pit stop which affected his ra🍬ce one massively, the Spaniard fought back hard.

Escaping the crash filled first few corners, the Ducati rider was ꦕup a massive nine positions to fifth after just one lap - but his damage limitation mission was not over.

Next in line was his teammate at Aruba.it racing, Ruben Rinaldi, who put up limited resis✨tance, allowiಞng the championship leader to chase down the lead trio.

Starting with a three second gap, Bautꦏista demolished it 🧜to quickly arrive on the back wheel of Bassani on the penultimate lap.

The last lap of the race saw the #1 bike make it’s move claiming a valuable 𒁃podium finish as the title lead was once again cut.

Bautista began the weekend with a 70 point advantage, which was cut to 54 after r🍨ace one. Hie efforts to stem the damage sees th🌠e gap lessen again but only by a further five points to 49, with an improved front row start beckoning for race two.

Bassanꦗi had topped warm-up earlier in the morning, hinting he had a handle on the tricky, drying conditions after another shower before that session but could not hold back a determined Bautista, so finished fourth after his stint in the lea🐭d for Motocorsa Racing on the Ducati.

Michael Rinaldi was a distant fifth for Aruba.It racing - the Italian seemed to cause the incident which took Xavi Vierge out on lap ☂one.

Remy Gardner was also affected by the acci♔dent affected opening lap, frustrated that getting caught up left him out of contention for a better finish, taking sixth for GYTR GRT Ya💟maha.

The Australian was under pressure to the line from Alex Lowes, who slipped back as Gardner picked back places after falling to seventh from his front row start. The Kawasaki rider spent much of the race to that point ba�🅺�ttling with Rinaldi for position.

Danilo Petrucci was anothe෴r fro🌳nt row starter in need of a comeback, second on the grid, his woeful start saw him drop to twelfth on the first lap.

Undeterred, the Baꦇrni Spark ride💮r got back in gear, pushing his Ducati as he fought back for eighth at the chequered flag.

The final points place went to Garrett Gerloff, clear of Iker Lecuona who in turn had a🅘 gap of his own back toDominique Aegerter, who was busy with Loris Baz, locked in aꦅ fierce battle for eleventh.
