Description

Race 1

Alvaro Bautista has clinched his 16th World Superbike race win of the season in controversial circumstances as six riders sit out the opener in Argentina over safety concerns.
The Aruba.it Racing Ducati rider headed up a starting grid of just 12 riders, seeing off a first-lap battle against Michael van der Mark and Jonathan Rea, to charge to victory ahead of the newly-crowned five-time World Superbike champion Rea.
Toprak Razgatlioglu carved his way up to third place for Puccetti Kawasaki in front of Pata Yamaha duo van der Mark and Alex Lowes.
Eugene Laverty, Marco Melandri, Ryuichi Kiyonari, Sandro Cortese, Chaz Davies and Leon Camier all opted not to start the race, the six riders chose not to race due to safety concerns having seen slippery conditions, caused by a dusty and dirty track, which hampered practice and qualifying at Circuit San Juan Villicum.
