Works Ducati WorldSBK rider Chaz Davies believes Toprak Razgatlioglu will be the ‘boy to watch’ should the 2020 season finally go ahead.

The Turk won his first race at Magny-Cours last year and Davies says that the hardest part is now over - plus he has a factory Yamaha underneath him this season.

“Toprak is definitely the boy to watch out for at the moment,” said Davies. “Last year he took his first win and freed himself from that burden - and the first win is certainly one of the hardest things.

“And now that he’s driving for a factory team, he’s going to be a very tough opponent. Definitely he will be very fast, hopefully not too fast.”
