National Pilot Sofuoğlu Defeated at Misano Following a Crash Incident
The Misano circuit, host of the seventh round of the 2026 World Superbike Championship, presented an unwelcome scenario for national pilot Bahattin Sofuoğlu. Racing under the Yamaha Motoxracing team, Sofuoğlu withdrew from the race prematurely after a serious crash at Turn 13 during the 30-lap concluding race of the Superbike class.
Details of the Crash Incident
During the early stages of the race, national athlete Bahattin Sofuoğlu lost control of his Yamaha motorcycle at Turn 13 – one of the circuit’s fastest sections – causing the front wheel to wash out. The out-of-control motorcycle ran off track and accelerated towards the barriers at high speed. The near miss averted a potentially much more serious outcome.
