A first test in Jerez will be followed by a second outing at Portim൲ao, which is again a two-day test.

But before that came the German manufactඣurer’s team launch where Razgatlioglu and Van Der Mark unveiled their 2024 M 1000 RR, alongside Bonovo Acti🐻on BMW duo Scott Redding and Garrett Gerloff.

“I am very happy to join the BMW Motorrad family,” said Razgatlioglu. “When I arrived at Berlin on Monday and left the airport I was really surprised beca🔯use everyone spoke Turkish. Also at the plant, there are so many Turkish employees. I am very happy for this. 

“In general, I am very positive. E🦂specially today, there were a lot of people and I understand that a lot of people like me. A lot of people came here to see me, also many Turkish guys, and a lot of them came from very far away. 

“Everyone can’t wait for the season, and that also goes for me. 𝔉My focus is now on the season. I realized that the people believe in me, but it is important that you believe in your bike. 

“Many people say that the BMW is not ready to fight for the championship but I believe ෴that my bike is ready to fight for wins and the championship. 

“We just need my setup, because my riding style is completely different. When we have this, we can easily fight for the win. Now I am just focusing on the🧔 test next week. 

“It is really important for me. I need to adapt t𝕴o the bike and I believe that we can fight for the podium and the wins this season. I am excited. 

“I signed with BMW but I am also a part of the family. This is something I saw today again and it is great. I will give more than 100🦂 percent, I will try to win with BMW. 

“Everyone is working hard and this is a great 🎃extra motivation also for me. If we keep doing this, w🌳e will win the World Championship.”

Like Razgatlioglu, Van Der Mark is raring to go൲ after fully recovering from his i𒀰njuries last season.

The Dutch rider said: “It’s nice to start the season, it’s great to be here in Berlin. We all know that🅠 BMW is a big company but෴ we got a nice tour through the plant and I must say that it is really impressive. 

“It was also great to see where they prepare the race engines and I am really ready to start t꧋he season. 

“I can’t wait to go testing again, I feel one hundred percent fit, I got a new teammate that seems to be really fast – so I am looking forward to it🧸. 

“Like I said, I am fit again, the bike is getting better and better, Toꦚprak is pushing the project even more and I think we want to win races a🎃nd be on the podium as soon as possible.”
