Toprak Razgatlioglu Wins Superbike Championship Over Jonathan Rea
The race was delayed by an hour and a half due to heavy rain.
After the track was declared safe and the weather improved, the committee decided to hold a race with a distance of 12 laps from the original 21 laps.
Polesitter Razgatlioglu was good enough to start the closing race of the season when the track was still wet.
Rea slipped to fifth position after the start but was able to find a gap to improve his position.
Axel Bassani, who was quite competitive in Race 1, fell at the exit of the last corner after colliding with Michael Van Der Mark.
After five laps, Redding and Rea were the two dominant drivers, leaving their rivals behind as Van Der Mark and Razgatlioglu were 3.5 seconds apart for third place.
Redding took advantage of the main straight with the power of his Ducati bike to overtake Rea for the lead.
However, the Kawasaki rider stole the gap in the last two corners, restored his position, and won his second race of the day after beating Razgatlioglu in Race 1 this morning.
Jonathan Rea failed to defend his World Superbike championship title at the Mandalika Circuit after being defeated by Toprak Razgatlioglu.
