Fresh from taking his maiden World Superbike rostrum Toprak Razgatlioglu has re-signed with the Puccetti Kawasaki squad for the 2019 World Superbike championship.

Eugene Laverty says his race two at Donington Park “was a disaster” with a scary technical problem with his Milwaukee Aprilia which caused his throttle to get stuck open.

Leon Camier has been buoyed by the progress Red Bull Honda has produced with its new electronics package but is eager for the team to deliver more power to catch its World Superbike rivals.

Chaz Davies says he feels he has to fight his Aruba.it Racing Ducati to see improvements after making a small recovery to fifth place in race two at Donington Park.

Jonathan Rea may have to wait a little longer to take the outright record for all-time World Superbike race wins but feels it was mission accomplished at Donington Park with a pair of podiums to extend his championship lead to a commanding position.

Michael van der Mark says he’s in dreamland after securing a maiden double victory at Pata Yamaha’s home round at Donington Park and feels the team’s tireless work is starting to pay off.

Tom Sykes says “being pissed off is an understatement” after his frustrating race weekend at his home round Donington Park which saw him lose ground to his World Superbike championship rivals.

Both Marco Melandri and Chaz Davies have been left deflated by Ducati’s grip and stability issues plaguing its pace at Donington Park as the Italian manufacturer suffered its worst World Superbike race in over three years.

Tom Sykes feels a drop in rear traction with his Kawasaki was the cause behind his late race fade at Donington Park but was content to take third place to continue his mid-season resurgence.

Jonathan Rea says he will try out the same Pirelli rear tyre option Michael van der Mark used in his charge to victory in the Donington Park opener after losing out to the Pata Yamaha rider.

Michael van der Mark says he knew the Pata Yamaha package was capable of winning races this year and has relished the result having spent four years in the series before his maiden World Superbike win.
