French WorldSBK - FP2 Results

Chequered flag is out for FP2 in Magny-Cours. No major changes at the front but Alex Lowes gets up to fourth. But it's Michael van der Mark who ends as fastest, ahead of Nicolo Bulega and Garrett Gerloff. 

Rea now up to seventh, +0.768 with less than a minute remaining now.

Van der Mark now fastest, 0.149s faster than Bulega and almost into the 1:35s at a 1:36.010.

Sam Lowes has improved to 11th, to, and now the last rider within a second of Bulega.

Jonathan Rea moved up to eighth with his most recent lap, +0.822 to Bulega.

Gerloff goes fastest by 0.193s over Bulega, but the Italian immediately takes back the top spot by 0.231s.

Bulega lapping consistently now in the mid-1:36s, which is encouraging for him, as van der Mark moves up to P2, just 0.012s behind Bulega.

Van der Mark up to third with his best lap, +0.052 to Bulega. Gerloff there in fifth, too, so still some solid pace shown by the BMWs even with Razgatlioglu out of the session.

Lecuona was on an improving lap but almost crashed in the final chicane. Still P10 for the Honda rider.

Sam Lowes improves to 15th with his latest lap, +1.274 to the top, as Rinaldi goes sixth with his latest lap, +0.428s.

Bautista's back to the pits, as is almost everyone else. Bulega still fastest from Petrucci.

Bautista is down now at turn eight. Not a huge deal, just in the middle of the corner, lost the front as the went to the gas. He's back on and getting it back to the pits.

The red flag has been helpful for Rinaldi. He's back out on track and goes 20th with his first lap.

Bassani having a decent session at the moment, P5 and +0.309 to Bulega.

Nicolo Bulega now fastest, ahead of Petrucci, on a 1:36.583, 0.026 clear of his compatriot.

Not everyone in a rush to head out. Into the last 15 minutes now, and still quite a few riders in pit lane after the red flag ended.

The session has now restarted with 32 minutes left on the clock.

Razgatlioglu now confirmed to be heading to the medical centre for a check-up.

Razgatlioglu was able to walk away under his own power, but at this time there's no official update on his condition.

Razgatlioglu was shown on international TV pictures taking his helmet off with both hands, and being taken away in an ambulance.

Razgatlioglu now on his first flying lap, and he's down hard. He was 0.5s up after three splits, but crashed braking for the penultimate corner. He slid across to the inside of the circuit and hit the wall on the inside of the penultimate corner. He's receiving some medical attention trackside, and the red flag is out.

Razgatlioglu heading back out on track again, and it's now Danilo Petrucci on top, 0.122s ahead of Lowes.

Bautista continuing to look uncomfortable on the Ducati, but it's fast when he hooks it up. He's third at the moment, behind Lowes and Danilo Petrucci.

Razgatlioglu still hasn't set a time, and he's back in the pits. Meanwhile, it's Alex Lowes on top of the times on a 1:36.731.
