2025 Aragon WorldSBK: Race 1 Results

Results from the opening race at the 2025 Aragon WorldSBK from MotorLand Aragon.

Toprak Razgatlioglu claimed his first race win at Aragon in WorldSBK, beating Nicolo Bulega by 0.030 seconds at the end of 18 laps.

Razgatlioglu and Bulega passed each other several times in the opening laps, but neither was able to make a decisive break. Bulega was much faster than Razgatlioglu in the final sector, especially in the final two corners, which meant that even with an advantage of almost half-a-second the BMW rider was not safe from a pass before the line.

The battling between the front two helped many other riders stay close to the front. Sam Lowes was the most notable of those, sticking in third place for the duration although he was never able to make a move on Bulega for second place.

Danilo Petrucci spent most of the race trying to catch Lowes, but was ultimately unable to do so. He also spent much of the race defending from Alvaro Bautista, but the Spanish rider crashed out on lap 13 at turn 15.

That crash promoted Alex Lowes to fifth and Andrea Locatelli to sixth, but the latter was passed by Andrea Iannone in the closing stages; Iannone finishing sixth and Locatelli seventh.

Axel Bassani was forced to start from the back of the grid after picking up a penalty for ignoring yellow flags in FP2. He mounted a strong comeback to finish eighth ahead of Xavi Vierge and Michael van der Mark who rounded out the top-10.

Tarran Mackenzie and Remy Gardner were the only two retirements other than Bautista.
