Toprak Razgatlioglu wins again in the WorldSBK Superpole race at Mandalika, as champion-elect Alvaro Bautista finishes a cautious fourth:
Yamaha rider Razgatlioglu had to work hard to overcome Kawasaki man Rea to pick up his second win of the weekend in Indonesia and his 13th of the season, the pair split by only half a second at the end of the 10-lap sprint.
Razgatlioglu led his teammate Locatelli at the start in a repeat of Saturday's opening race of the weekend, with Rea settling into third, but it wasn't long before the six-time champion - officially out of the title chase as of Race 1 - had passed Locatelli and was challenging for the lead. Behind, Locatelli did his teammate a big favour by keeping Bautista's Ducati at bay in the fight for third for the entire race, the Italian rider also clinching his first podium finish since the second round of the season at Assen.
