This young man is overflowing with talent and charisma . It would be great to see him go to moto GP , take a year to learn the bike and the tires then lay waste to the field . There would finally be a rider to cheer for in moto GP . My hats off to Kenan Sofoglioglu for doing such a fantastic job mentoring this fine young man . Go Toprak ! .
sadly. he wont stand a chance. would be interesting to see
he is not good enough to be in motoGP. He will get eaten alive. He's not even faster than test riders smh
He's too tall. Unless he's as talented as Vale, which he isn't, it isn't gonna happen.
@@sabref4i290 Yamaha bike is crap, you expect him to break lap records?
@@coxnballs
Luca Marini is also tall. Doesn’t matter
its amazing to see how far along his english has come. i remember his short, shy, struggled interviews. but now its brilliant
He says that he wanted to understand the bike, the tires, he wanted to get the feeling and responses. And he did say that he was not pushing for lap times, considering bringing the bike back one piece. So I can’t understand people expecting times etc? What should he do, brake the lap record? Those comments show people don’t understand biking.
I wish Toprak a great future and only given his talent and amazing riding style like no other, any MotoGP Team willing to invest in a new strong and long lasting relation, most probably would build up a fighter for the podiums. It’s just being able to sense the potential and willing to give him the legit chance and time for him to make the bike his toy, as he plays with the Superbikes.
Finally a Interview press conference please more videos like that in the future.
Aslan toprak sana iyi sezonlar dilerim ✊
Bence WSBK'da kalsan daha iyi olur,bence süperbike sürüş sana daha çok yakışıyor.
Senin sayende ben de r1 gytr aldım ama alışmam lazim , 5 yıldır farklı bir motosiklet pistlerde kullanıyordum onun için sürüş tarzı değiştirmek o kadar kolay değil.
A legend already and he still has so much to give, go Toprak!
Yamaha is a crap bike right now in MotoGP…if Fabio can’t compete for the win on the M1 then Toprak can’t. Not saying he shouldn’t move on to MotoGP just not with Yamaha
@@greatcornholio5541 seeing him and Marc Marquez on a Ducati, battling it out with the best on equal machinery is my dream now
@@greatcornholio5541 I think that'd give Toprak more time to adjust, while Yamaha tries to improve. Less pressure on the initial year would be nice
@@miyaaaaw I’d like to see Fabio/Marquez team up on factory Aprilia in the near future…I think those two would spank Ducati
@@sxuld Yamaha has already wasted a year or two not developing a competitive V4 engine…playing catch-up is not going to be easy at that level.
When Toprak was a child, we rode a motorcycle together. He is definitely a very talented driver. He should definitely compete in motogp and you will see that he is successful and gives pleasure to the audience. He has a great driving style, aggressive and late braking is excellent. It's sure to excite us viewers.
toprak you talk like vale, simple and staight, kenan gave you great training
What a humble guy!
You gotta love Toprak, seems like a really cool guy. A bit unfair expecting that he would do some amazing lap times on the M1 GP bike. He only had 2 days on it!! Like he said, completely different bike, it wasn't qualifying he was 'having a go'
Awesome Toprak. Love how he’s so honest about all the technical feedback.
Alot of non native english speakers can let stuff slip, but toprak is just an honest guy
Silly for Yamaha and the MotoGP paddock to expect Raz to be quick straight away but Raz and his manager needs to accept to be a rookie in a satellite team if a MotoGP team will give him a ride.
Wsbk&MotoGP Completely different
agree . wbsk is like moto2 ish...
@@petemorbius3936 I didn't know moto2 bikes only 1-2 seconds slower than motogp bikes.
Hope the r1 is better this year
Turkish Star 🌟 Top Rock is rock of Superbike!
He's a great ambassador for Turkey
great to hear his opinions and realllllllly good to hear riders giving good feedback for the fans shoud be more interviews like this to get to know the riders better
Probably quite happy with the choice of going to Yamaha,, career is still climbing and good to see that he is happy ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️ from northern Ireland
El Turco, born to ride.
Salam Eid to Toprak and all Muslim
Eid Mubarak 🤲
Diplomatic 👏
MotoGP needs him [draw], I like him in WSBK ToPRaK is class act operator, one the youth can look up too!
Seriously respect him......represents whats good in a human & solid competitor

Basically, he had zero english when he moved to the superbike paddock. What he has now is a massive improvement compared to what he had in the past.
He kept saying that answer cause he did terrible 😂😂😂 now listen to it with the fact that he struggled, in your mind, an you’ll see by his words and mannerisms that he’s actually showing he didn’t do well
@@patrickdavis3153 He haven't even did a time attack so early to judge.
@@patrickdavis3153 Haha! What you say is true. I think he was expecting it to be easier: Why do you spend 2 days adapting and not impressing anybody, knowing that you probably won't have another chance to impress the team?
@@patrickdavis3153 your really talking shit about a wsbk champion not able to ride the gp bike properly?….have you even ridden a bike on track? Or do u even ride? Get a life buddy….
Nonostante avesse chiesto alla Yamaha di adeguare la posizione della sella per Jerez non lo hanno ascoltato e poi vanno ha dire che si aspettavano di piu. Sapeste cosa ci aspettiamo noi dalla Yamaha ma sono sempre allo stesso punto.
Gli hanno fatto fare il test tanto per e lui non è rimasto per nulla soddisfatto.
Motogpde toprağı eleyeceklerini düşünüyorlar ama toprağı hiç tanımıyorlar 😁
I remember Ben Speis arrival to Motogp after spending just a year in Superbike and become Superbike WC, the expectation was high but reality is different. Same story with Toprak.
Ditto for Colin Edwards.
Whereas going from GP to WSB is much easier. Just ask Bautista.
Master Of Brake.. We want to see you in MOTOGP.. İt would be amazing.
I think it’s more we want Toprak because he’s Toprak. But Grand Prix bikes are so different, way stiffer, harder to ride loose like Toprak does. Tyres and brakes a waaaay different and I think it shows in the lap times.
Too much electronics in MotoGP.. Stoner could ride a GP bike loose and he hated electronics.
@@petesmitt there’s less use now than there has been before, due to the wings. The wings push down the front and rear more, so they can use more power without TC cutting power delivery. Do your homework ;)
@@petesmitt Stoner rode with the rear, Toprak rides with the front, not sure why you’re confusing the styles. Plus Casey was very, very special. Casey liked using less TC because he had an amazing ability to control the power delivery himself, using the spin to his advantage when he could
@@Jimmie92 I'm not confusing the styles; I stated Stoner liked to ride his bike loose and that he hated electronics.. both true. I also stated my opinion there's too much electronics with GP bikes.. my opinion; wings reducing the need for TC is one thing but then, I don't like wings or ride height devices either..
@@petesmitt yeah but they have to use more skill now to handle the 300bhp power band, Jeremy McWilliams himself said the other day, the current bikes are so powerful, they wouldn’t be rideable without wings. Less electronics these days that’s for sure though
Toprak
Ma se andrebbe in Moto GP davvero 🤞🤞🤞💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
I wonder what is his lap times on motoGP bike? 🇹🇷
A legend….
Toprak to Gresini Ducati!!
This guy is made for rossi’s 2011 Ducati bike. That bike accelerated and stopped but turned bad. Today all bikes in MotoGP want to turn. I don’t know if he will succeed
WE want to see you in MOTOGP !!
He should definitely be in MotoGP for at least... I don't know why some people said he's too slow, he probably didn't even use the ride height device.
Apparently the test didn’t go very well
@@TheInfantry98 who would adapt to GP bike in just 2 days... He will be in GP next year to replace Franco if not then in Satellite team...
@@salttea8926 Well 1st Yamaha flat out they would resign Franky if he improves enough over last year. 2nd Topraks manager stated he would only come to motogp for a factory ride. So we'll have to see how things play out.
@@steve23464 I don't think that they will resign Franco, they will think about future to adapt two teams with some rookie sensations and Toprak... At least we will see 4 rookies... If Franco is in top 5 then they may think about him in satellite with a rookie... If only they may consider a satellite team...
@@salttea8926 Lyn Jarvis plainly stated he would re-sign Franky if he can improve from last year. I predict If he's in the top 8 he's in. Toprak should be open minded about a satellite ride, finish in the top 10 then renegotiate his contract. Cal was fast in BSB but was realistic about his chances.
TOPRAK FOR PRESIDENT!
I don't think he'll remain in Yamaha in 2024. It seems they are just faking him MotoGP tests. They haven't even bothered adjusting the seat position to his requirements. Whether it's going to be MotoGP or WSBK I hope he takes on a different team and then Yamaha won't ever see podium for a very long time.
Toprak s ride IQ is very high,his mind is on WSB championship of course he can adapted On Gp machine needs defentive view Month to Adapting.
two worlds far apart GP bikes and superbikes. Different from what many of us thought because we think that two tires make every motorcycle equal.
imagine he was allowed to answer in turkish, it would be a quality interview. like this its just completely different... XD
Assen should be in September.
Some of the comments are very biased. In order to make a complete assessment, it is necessary to evaluate all contextual conditions. First of all, he could not express himself adequately because of his English speaking ability. secondly, he may not have wanted to force himself because it was the test bike. therefore he needs more time and chance to see himself. Third, he also wants to see himself (his qualifications) for moto GP anyway. He doesn't want to stay in the middle places in motoGP. He said that if it will be like this, he will prefer to stay in WSBK and become a legend like Rea. Finally, I think Yamaha should improve their bikes a bit more in both wsbk and gp.
Pretty sure he's realized he can either be a player in WSB or an also ran in MotoGP. I don't expect to see him in GP. There's also what most people don't see, there's way more pressure on GP, WSB is much more relaxed.
he is an entertainer Motogp need him. just to give it a refresh. but if he stays at WSBK also good enough as he retains wsbk fans and even pull even more crowds
Toprak is more talented than the majority of the field .
Lmao! His times were 2 seconds off Yamahas test riders 🤦🏽♂️ there were rumors he had difficulty getting used to the Yamaha moto gp bike as well. They said he needs time. Which they have zero interest in giving him. They will get Jorge Martin before Toprak. He’s a race winning proven rider. An they’ll hope Martin fixes his inconsistency and be able to not fall off in the last ten laps like he does now. Notice Topraks emphasis on “it’s a completely different bike” and how he says “he’s just enjoying it” he knows he didn’t do well an he’s making excuses for him.
@@patrickdavis3153 Its about compatibility, it takes years to adapt to something so different, Toprak is not slow providing he's even more faster than MotoGP bikes in Mandalika with his WSBK R1, its not a skill issue.
@@patrickdavis3153 you cant expect somebody to break records or be close to a seasoned rider in just 2 days of trying let alone not even doing a time attack.
he was talking about the potentiial of toprak as a talent which is granted much more than many on the moto gp line up.
1 person go to WSBK and now 1 person about to go to MotoGP
Yamaha didn’t want him for MotoGP otherwise they would let him try everything at every cost. They have scared him not to brake the bike and didn’t force him for lap times. They lost Toprak for this failure and BMW is now planning a MotoGP entry with Toprak at any price ❤
if Top took what was his he would do way better and eventually he would be on top, building on that
El turco lets go 👑
I keep the bike one piece😅😅😅😅... That have me😂😂😂
What about pecco?
Legende guy
MotoGP is in a different league, as well as the riders.
WSBK is the minor leagues compared to MotoGP.
PLease WSBK..ridiculous long break. like entering new season already
Imagine Toprak in MGP, And Álvaro and Rea not far from retire...poor WSBK
Stay where you are .
The depth of knowledge this young man has regarding riding motorcycles is staggering.
Unfortunately nobody asks about the MOST OBVIOUS question.
So no one asks the main Question that evryone wonders ??
Can someone ask pls ?
Will you sign with Yamaha ?
İf No ?
Will you be signing any other MotoGp teams ??
Are you Goıng to MotoGp or will you stay in WSBK ??
Gotta love the couch potatoes that say he was too slow.
Cant comprehend that the only similarity is name and shape and that race bikes ar world championship levels are like tailored suits
I think he was a bit too gently with that motogp bike during the test as they had no second bike, look like he did not push it ,
Now that makes him look slow but If they know his capabilities and personality they will definitely offer him a seat in motogp. Ones he get used the bike and know he can ride up to limits he will do many many podiums
👀😮🤲
Completely different for so many times.. 😅
Since we know the dominance of Ducati at Motogp how can Yamaha compete? It's a highrisk move.
Hahaha he did not like it a bit!
IT LOOKS LIKE HE DID NOT LIKE IT. ALSO HE DID NOT EXPLAIN THE DIFFERENCE IN POWER AND BRAKING
What if he use to ride the gp bike another level will appear
Spero che rimani in SBK Razga! La MotoGP non è bella
It’s like asking what’s the difference between a Ford fiesta and a f1 car as he says very different 😂 does it have any similarities to your R1 🙈 no none apart from 2 wheels
Clearly, Toprak understands what he needs to change when riding a MotoGP bike. He made numerous references to the seat. Please keep in mind that he was a Yamaha rider, and the bike was a Yamaha. The team failed to fulfill his request for a lower seat. In other interviews, he expressed his disappointment about this fact. I don't think it should be perceived as an excuse for his riding; it is clearly an expression of his disappointment. He is a rider who pushes the limits and needs feedback from the bike to understand his riding limits. That opportunity was not provided by the team. What a disappointment. I hope he fulfills his dream to race in MotoGP.
Lin Jarvis said it on the last GP race, they were not impressed. Top Rak aint going to GP he dont have the ability to ride at that level. Thats just the facts. Nothing against him but there are levels to it and SBK and GP are totally different and the riding styles are not the same to ride both.
He rode only 2 days, is there a driver that adapts better in such a short time?
@@kompetano stop with adapting thing man, motogp is motogp, if he wants to be the best then motogp is the real deal, let’s be honest
genc, kaç yıldır bu isin icindesin, su ingilizceyi sök artık. sevgiler, hakkında herseyin hayirlisi, GP'de görmeyi çok isterim
Good news. Wsbk became crap or nit tasteful as before after the unfairly fast bike running in the race. More talented rider losing the game so it was time to left the game from Wsbk.
Hope all the best for Toprak.
Not everyone can make the cut & I don't see a motogp winner in this bloke.
He's so young but too slow there.
He was slower than the test riders.... I don't think Moto GP is interested. Plus there's too many young guns in Moto 2 . I think that was his chance and... he may not get to Moto GP.
what do you expect in 2 days of "trying".
Most if not all riders who went from SBK to MotoGP faced complete failure and sometimes disaster forcing them to return to SBK like wet cats! I don't think he's an exception imo
Toprak, get a different bike.Japaneses do not like turkeish guys. It will help you a lot.
Top crack
Rain goats iglooo oue
😃😃😃
Pl don't go moto gp
They will thrash you
Better stay here
Hater
@@themre9470 just a truth
My brother
In some tracks, he's faster than MotoGP riders with his 240 HP R1, it's not a skill issue but compatibility issue.
Ofcourse he isn’t concerned with his times… 😂 His times were 2 seconds off Yamahas test riders 🤦🏽♂️ there were rumors he had difficulty getting used to the Yamaha moto gp bike overall. They said he needs time. Which they have zero interest in giving him. They will get Jorge Martin before Toprak. He’s a race winning proven rider. An they’ll hope Martin fixes his inconsistency and be able to not fall off in the last ten laps like he does now.

Go play ps5 budy. You dont know shit about bikes
he would get eaten alive and motoGP wasn't even faster than the test riders come on, his time has passed
Toprak is Not good enough for the MotoGP!!
hahahahahahaha :D Franco Fan :D
@@japkogame1579 VR46😃
Say him "you can not" and just watch what happens 😃😃
He's definitely good enough .
Probably not.
At times I really wonder with some of the questions from journos, what did they want to hear from Toprak. We have seen from past new riders to MotoGP will need time to understand and adapt regardless of how good they may be from the class or Championship they are from.
Yamaha need and want a rider who is quick and already fast in their MotoGP team as they are well behind the rest. I do not think at this moment Toprak fits that description simply cos they do not have time to allow a rider to adapt. If they still had a satellite team then perhaps a little bit easier to slot him in even though Keenan says only an official factory team is wanted (they'll put the latest spec bike as enticement) That is all moot until 2025 if Yamaha can secure a satellite team. Until then I reckon Toprak's best ride shall still be in WSBK.
with this Red Bull beanie he reminds me of a more caucasian James Bubba Stewart
He just don't have it in MotoGP....
completely different bikes with completely different ride style required, completely different tyres, plus don't forget Toprak has extremely specific traits as a rider (size and unique riding style all on the front end) and Yamaha M1 a super dated bike (as well as R1).
Both him and Fabio in such a difficult situation, I wouldn't want to be in their shoes
he was SLOW
