After two retirements in Assen, the championship leader returns stronger than ever: he wins Race 1 in Cremona, reminding everyone that the top spot in the standings is still his.

Consistency, determination, and a desire to win: Nicolò Bulega and Toprak Razgatlioglu share the same goal and will do everything they can to claim the coveted world title. On one side, a young talent; on the other, a rider determined not to give up the #1 plate on his bike.

In Saturday afternoon’s race, the battle between the two reignites, but once again it’s the Italian who comes out on top. Although Razgatlioglu gives it everything to stay in front, after a few laps he realizes that his chances of troubling his rival are nearly nonexistent: Bulega’s race pace is clearly more competitive.

The #11 rider from the Aruba.it Team thus gains five points on Toprak, which could prove crucial in the championship battle. The fiercer the competition becomes, the more every single point gained could make a difference.
