Toprak Razgatlioglu diz que está vivendo “um momento difícil”, com a cirurgia no ombro tendo encerrado sua temporada na MotoGP antes do fim.
O piloto turco ficou fora do GP da Austrália e também vai perder as rodadas finais, incluindo o teste de Valência em 1º de dezembro — a primeira saída completa com as motos de especificação 2027.
A lesão aconteceu no TL2 do GP da Indonésia, quando sofreu uma luxação grave do ombro direito. Os médicos recolocaram o ombro no lugar e ele tentou continuar: ainda saiu para a classificação e largou na corrida de domingo, mas abandonou em Mandalika por causa da dor.
A Pramac então confirmou que a cirurgia era necessária, com o objetivo de tê-lo totalmente recuperado para o primeiro teste de pré-temporada de 2027, em Sepang, em 31 de janeiro. Antes do fim de semana do GP da Malásia, ele publicou fotos de uma cama de hospital num centro especializado em Milão.
“Às vezes coisas inesperadas acontecem. Estou passando por um momento difícil porque, pela primeira vez na minha carreira esportiva, tive que encerrar uma temporada antes do fim”, escreveu.
“Assistir às corridas na televisão é uma sensação muito estranha. Fiz a cirurgia no ombro para voltar mais forte e já comecei a treinar. Espero voltar à moto o quanto antes.”
Ele agradeceu à Yamaha, à equipe, ao cirurgião e aos fãs que mantiveram contato durante a recuperação.
Seus títulos do WorldSBK vieram em 2021, 2024 e 2025. Ele subiu para a MotoGP nesta temporada, aos 29 anos, num ano em que o desempenho da Yamaha limitou o que ele podia mostrar. Ele segue na Pramac na próxima temporada, com contrato de Yamaha até o fim de 2028 e uma cláusula de saída depois da campanha que vem.
