Mission title defense accomplished: Toprak Razgatlioglu is once again the World Champion in the FIM Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK) for 2025! With third place in the second main race of the dramatic season finale in Jerez de la Frontera, ‘El Turco’ secured the crown. This marks his second consecutive World Championship title as a BMW Motorrad Motorsport factory rider with the BMW M 1000 RR of the ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team – and the third WorldSBK title of his career (2021, 2024, 2025).
Two more victories on the road to the riders’ world championship title and important points for the manufacturers’ battle – Toprak Razgatlioglu, BMW Motorrad Motorsport, and the ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team once again shone at Estoril. The penultimate round of the 2025 FIM Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK) took place at the Portuguese circuit near Lisbon. Riding his #1 BMW M 1000 RR, Razgatlioglu won both the first main race and the Superpole race, and added a second-place podium finish in race two.
The factory duo for BMW Motorrad Motorsport in the 2026 FIM Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK) is complete. After signing Italian rider Danilo Petrucci, his teammate for the 2026 season has now also been confirmed: it is Miguel Oliveira from Portugal. The 30-year-old will switch from MotoGP, where he has competed for seven years, to BMW Motorrad Motorsport in WorldSBK, and will race with the BMW M 1000 RR of the ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team.
The tenth race weekend of the 2025 FIM Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK) at MotorLand Aragón was all about thrilling battles between championship leader Toprak Razgatlioglu and runner-up Nicolò Bulega (Ducati). Starting from first and second on the grid, the two riders delivered breathtaking duels in all three races, keeping the nearly 30,000 spectators on the edge of their seats. In the first main race on Saturday afternoon, Razgatlioglu on the BMW M 1000 RR of the ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team came out on top and celebrated his 13th consecutive victory. With this, he tied his own record set during the 2024 season. It was also Razgatlioglu’s first-ever win at MotorLand Aragón.
On Sunday evening at Magny-Cours, all members of BMW Motorrad Motorsport and the ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team had one thing in common, a beaming smile. At the ninth round of the 2025 FIM Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK), Toprak Razgatlioglu claimed pole position, secured the triple for the fourth time in a row, and set more records. With this, “El Turco” extended his lead in the riders’ championship to 39 points with three more rounds to go. This season he already has 18 victories to his name, twelve of them consecutive. Razgatlioglu’s win in Sunday’s second main race was also BMW’s 50th victory in WorldSBK.
The BMW Motorrad Motorsport family in the FIM Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK) will welcome a new addition in 2026. Italian rider Danilo Petrucci will join the BMW Motorrad Motorsport factory rider line-up in WorldSBK. The 34-year-old fan favourite will compete next year aboard the BMW M 1000 RR for the ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team. He will succeed World Champion Toprak Razgatlioglu, who is set to move to MotoGP for the upcoming season.
