- EPISODE 6 - " A CHANGE OF MENTALITY"
To get my 250th podium makes me proud but it also makes me feel really old! It is nice and I feel it is beyond my wildest dreams to have achieved what I have done already.
I just enjoy it and hopefully there are many more to come. We won Superpole and just that little lift of being on pole is great for the guys in the garage. Donington is a good track for us so we should be strong here. In the beginning of the race, especially when Toprak was in front, I felt really comfortable to be there, enough to want to go past him and have clear air in front of me. In the middle of the race, when Alvaro was in front, the pace was faster. He was in the mid/high 1’26s and I was in the low 1’27s. In that situation I was trying harder, braking on the limit, and maybe overcooking it by a small margin.
My race was quite inconsistent, but even when Danilo was putting me under some pressure, which I could see on my pitboard. I was still able to be quite fast, lapping in the 1’27 low laps times, if a little sporadically. So the pace is there. I consumed the rear tyre but didn’t completely kill it, so there is reason for optimism with the rear of the bike. We just need to create that margin at the front so that if I do get in ‘hot’ I can still stop i
Every Father can relate with that last statement by little Rea "at least you didn't end up in the gravel" the look on Jon's face and the seriousness of his son. Man, truer words have never been spoken.
brought a tear to my eye. What a beautiful family.
Always look on the brigth side of life - thumbs up to little fella
My thoughts exactly. It was a heart warming moment.
You’re doing the best you can do with what you have. I applaud your effort.
I appreciate that!
♥️
Thanks for that Jonathan
I think most people realise we're watching two classes on the same grid this year. stopped paying any attention to the Ducatis with what is clearly an unfair advantage and I'm more interested in the actual racing taking place in 'the other class'. You're doing a great job on what is far from the best package and which will hopefully lay the foundations for a more competitive bike next season. So all the frustration of this year will be worth it in the end. Keep going.
“at least ye didn’t end up in the gravel” the wee man has a good point 🤷🏻♂️…….stick at it JR. always keeping it Rea’l 😉 good to see Tommy there, full of bean and rearing to go, as per usual 😆😆
🤙
Keep your head up Jonny. How you get through these tough times is what will make your return to winning so much sweeter.
I can imagine it's been a tough first half of the season, but it's nice when the family is there to lift up the spirits and keep things in perspective. Everyone can see you're giving it everything...stay strong and hopefully the gap will close soon! 💪💚🖤
Yes! Thank you!
Watching your passion to win and working so hard
is truly inspirational Jonathan. Having your family there
and especially the encouragement from your son is priceless.
Cheers Jonathan and keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍
Randy
I appreciate that!
@@jrea65 😎👊
I'm a big fan of Bautista but it's long years since Johnny has ridden in SBK and watching him won so many races, it's the big efforts and success, I have my respect to him👍
Go Toprak !!!!.
I brought my 6yr old son to his first world super bike weekend and he absolutely loved it. I got him pictured next to your bike and he wanted the Kawasaki Tshirt of course. We will both be cheering you on, keep pushing 💪
Love it!
A true champ, you have class winning or losing. So much respect, you’re doing wonders with what you’re working with. I’ve always been taught a worker is only as good as his tool/machine, it takes a real champ to understand to turn this into a learning season and realize it’s better to get data rather than hurt yourself going over the limit. You’ll get them next year JR keep at it
"What have ya done for me lately" probably holds true as much in motorsports as in anything, especially at this high level. Always a bummer when the superior machine, not riders make the difference.😮😢
Greetings from Turkiye Johnny. I love your friendship with Toprak and the way you take care of each other and compete by giving your all like big brother and younger brother. You are doing your best against this unfair series. I will always support the two of you. keep going champ
THANKS
Johny Your relations with other people are so nice to see.
You are very good Guy.
All the best.
You definitely deserve that ❤
Good job this weekend, Jonny. I love your boy’s optimism. I think we could all take a leaf out of his book. Vamosss!
Great support from everybody. Stick at it champ, we believe in you. ❤
I appreciate that
Ye didn't end up in the gravel. Priceless. You're riding incredibly well. Best of luck going forward.
Thanks!
Hey JR,we where at donnington at the weekend, cheering you on, you did the best you could with the bike you've got,we know you and your team are working hard to make the bike work, your the top rider, you just need the bike to be on the same level as you,then the wins will come, we'll always be there cheering you on, waving our flags👍
Awesome thank you!
No matter what happens, your family and supporters will always be there for ya 👍🏼👌🏼🙏🏼
You are such a nice person....such a professional racer.....that I dont care if you win or not (and I've been following the WSBK championship for 30 years).....but I really appreciate the fondamentals of your personality beeing as competitive as rules allow you to do so and at the same time you project such an inspiration for the future of the sport!!!
JR is up their with hia Dad , Joe and the rest of Northern Irish aka Ulster racers. GOATs
Was gutted for you this weekend, you deserve the win. Though time at the minute but it's inspiring to see your resilience and how you are pushing on. Fair play Johnny.
That's racing unfortunately .. thanks
The comment for your son at the end is TOP 😂😂😂
His attitude just bloody inspires me to get up off my arse and train. 👍
"At least you didn't end up in the gravel", kids are class! Great seeing your family always supporting you. You're ringing the neck out of that thing, Kawasaki need to get you a more competitive machine. You are doing our wee country mega proud 👍
Sorry for the late reply, Going through some tough situation in my professional situation as well. You are the one i look up to in all these situations. your grit and determination is what is keeping me inspired to grind hard. You are doing the best Jonny!. your efforts will be rewarded!. Thank you
'at least Dad, you didn't end up in the gravel.'
There is a son to be proud of.
Keep looking forward and at the positives mate, your not losing the pace....
Great effort mate. It's always fantastic watching you and the lads from KRT.
Glad you enjoyed it
The Ducati's power on the straights combined with Bautista's weight is unbeatable. You and Toprak have to override in the corners to make up for the straights. Makes for bad viewing, but I use to say the same thing about you, but yours was out riding everybody, not the bikes power.GLTY!!!!!!
True champ jonny ❤
For me you are doing one of your best seasons! You have to fight like an alien and are not sticking your head in the sand like a camel.
Keep pushing, love it ❤
If you wouldn't be racing in WSBK 2023, I wouldn't watch it...
That kid going to let her mum cut his hair again when he learned how much a trip to the barber cost.
Я болел за Кавасаки со времён Макото Тамады и Режи Лакони
Я влюблен в этот зелёный цвет, в этот мотоцикл.
Я видел очень много поражений и столько же побед. И большинство принёс Джонатан Рей! Он символ Кавасаки и её герой. А герои не сдаются, меняются, меняют окружающих, но побеждают!
Не в этот раз, так в следующий. Мы с тобой и мы верим в тебя!
Jonathan is the consummate professional… At no point during his 6 WSBK Champion streak did his ego become inflated, as is so common with others in pro sports. I’m impressed and excited by his on-track performance but am inspired and even More impressed by his example as a man of laudable character.
Been a long time fan of yours from Singapore. I can feel your frustrations. Part of being the champ and legend you are is your willingness to keep doing your best no matter the circumstances. You've nothing to prove to anyone. People know what you can do and achieve. Let's hope everything comes together. Till then just keep moving forward!!
Your son is an awesome! You're doing great, hopefully soon they get the bike sorted out.
Gutted for you at Donington you give a 100% all the time riding a donkey and yet you never whinge the true mark of the World Champion x 6
Better times ahead Champ!
Always our hero
Bless him lovely comment at the end 🥰
Head down under the visor champ, awesome work as always, wish You find what You need to keep other riders in dust 💚
That's the plan!
Relax, regroup, rethink, remain on top You'll get it mate...Cheers and good luck 👍
That's the plan!
Did an awesome job last weekend, was standing by the Esses and that superpole race was extremely close. Defo was an entertaining one to watch!
Good weekend mate getting stronger keep the head up its coming you got a good team with you there bike is getting there and your skill and ability is second to none we all support you and are behind you every step of the way
awesome work mate!!!! hang in there :)
We keep pushing as always!
Bottom line is you were the man, you're still the man and you'll ALWAYS be........ The Man!
Keep figthting you can do it 💪
cheers
Brilliant to see team JR back on the podium and looking racey. Definitely deserved more at Donington with the effort that went in but as the most erudite comment ever made by one so young. At least you didn’t end up in the gravel! Priceless 😂👌
Incredible grit in the superpole race, mega ride! 'at least you didnt end up in the gravel' :) no, truer word said, home safe with points. Onto the next one! Chapeau
Brilliant. Keep pushing. 👍👊
Always!
I'm Japanese.
I always support WSBK on RUclips and TV. I believe that I will definitely become a champion again.
JR No. 1! Kawasaki No.1!❤
Keep it lit
Loved being at Donnington this weekend. The Superpole sprint was so close, I really thought Jonny had it in the bag. Pity about the tyre deg in Race 2. The high winds on Sunday must have been challenging also.
Thanks - Was challenging for sure!
So impressive, down to earth and truthful about where your bike is at, at the moment Johnny . You’re a weapon mate and when the tide turns back in the bikes favour ( Not yours, ☝️you’re not the weak link in all of this 💪) you’ll be able to capitalise and make it last for more than 7 laps before it falls of a cliff . Brilliant racing with Toprak too, good on you . Chin up
Will always be a fan of yours!
Wish Kawasaki will be able to improve the engine so that the fight becomes more even!
All the best!
I have the photo with you taken last year in Misano hanging in my room, what an inspiration, keep pushing Goat 🐐see you in Imola!🤩
Legend!
Keep your head up Johnny. You're on the absolute limit of what that bike can do. Hopefully next year they can get more speed down the straights.
With a V4 they might
Chin up mate.
Your a winner so it must be tough not having a package that’s truly competitive this year but seems to me your riding better than ever hope you agree and that’s a positive to take away from the season so far. 👍
JR, keep fighting champion 💪🏻
Awesome bud cheers 👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
Your next championship will come when your bike can handle your incredible skill. It's going to be an exciting day!
Lovely to see Tommy there - want to see him try BSB
That rear wheel @8:40, and there's me mugging myself on my driveway for 2 hours to achieve the same.
A great champion with slower bike
Jonny, cambia esa cara, sabemos que haces un esfuerzo sobre humano!!! este año falta maquina!! saludos desde buenos aires!!
Edge of your seat riding this weekend. Loved it ! JR on a Ducati would be and interesting proposition though
When he was winning 6 titels in row en going from few wins to 100 plus wins the show was good aii 😂😂
Master Johnny and super Talent Toprak you are amazing but Ducati is so fast, physics rules sometimes make people helpless🙄
Loved watching you racing at Donington on Sunday. What are we gonna do about these crazy fast Ducati's?
Good question!
Thing is, It's not just the Crazy Fast Ducati's that are Beating JR, It's TR54 & even SR45 on occasion. I was at Donington on Sunday, And when AL22 was behind you, He didn't (or wasn't allowed?) to pass you. Would have Arguably towed you away from DP9 et al.
You'll get 3rd in this lack of Depth Championship, As AL55 is too inconsistent.
You reaped the harvest when you had much better tools than everyone else. That's all you can ask for really.
The I4 with spring valves can’t compete with the V4 desmo valves. That’s pretty much it.
Happy 4th rea!!!!!!
I've been a huge fan of motorcycle racing since forever. I've been watching worldsbk since 2009 and I've been a fan of ben spies since that year and i knew you were a major talent since then and when i heard you switched to kawasaki for 2015, i thought.... uh oh, this guys gonna dominate... and that you did because i knew how good that bike was back then because i have a gen 4 zx10r myself so i knew you were gonna lay waste to the competition. You, marquez, ben spies and nicky hayden are my favorite riders and i dont know whats goin on with the rules in worldsbk but i do know you guys at krt are fighting with both hands tied behind your backs. Hopefully you give it a couple more years and hopefully kawasaki gives you an entirely new bike that'll enable you to take the fight to ducati and make it a wheel to wheel and elbow to elbow fight instead of a one sided domination like it is now
Brilliant effort Johnny. Hard to beat someone who’s the size of a nine year old boy !
This season is a write off but no one would say you haven't given it 110%. Trick is don't get hurt and keep pressing on. You have more in you. You just need kawasaki to lift.
It sucks because the same reason I stopped watching MotoGP is going to be the same reason I stop watching SBK. The dominance of Ducati. It makes for boring racing when you know who is going to win. You have so many great racers and personalities but, that only goes so far in retaining viewership. These racing big wigs need to figure out how to even the playing field. I think motorcycle racing was on the cusp of growing and the past two years at minimum have yielded minimal competition. I am a big fan of Rea and I hate seeing him wind down his career frustrated. I think when he does retire……viewers will turn to other racing venues for entertainment. F1 is no different. Moto2 and 3 are more competitive and fun to watch. Rea is a class act and fierce competitor and I want to continue watching and remain hopeful that something will change.
How’s the cheek?!
Do you think next season is your last?
Some journalists hey!
I Think the superbike need to make changes like what MotoGP plan to do in 2024 the concession thing that Ducati Bike is too damn strong. I don't how they can do it in superbike but I know they need to make changes.
The Ducati is already pushing 240hp out the box lol, the Kawasaki is at least 200-220, I’ve been watching Ducati cheat there way back to the top again 😐
Hahah @4:29 more like Croc-rak
I'm still in a bad mood that you didn't win a race at home but fk me everyone can see you're trying.
You done some brilliant racing this weekend. One step at time, it'll come.
Hope so!
Rea you’re the man 6 times WSBK the Goat I hate seeing you ride on the limit you can only do what the tools allow. Kawasaki is too fault the writing was on the wall 2 years ago sitting on the current ZX10RR platform unless Kawasaki builds a new bike with the philosophy ofDucati with Moto GP technology past down to WSBK Kawasaki will not be able to Win the ZX10RR is a street bike turned into a race bike. Kawasaki said that there Target is Yamaha,BMW,Honda it might be time to leave Kawasaki maybe you go to Yamaha I can’t believe I’m saying that but it’s reality . They are the closest to the Ducati because of their Moto GP technology if Kawasaki would have stayed in Moto GP they could passed down to technology to their WSBK teams Im a Kawasaki fan and love their bikes they sell street bikes not race bikes . All the disciplines the ZX10RR competes in are suffering . Again keep your head up champ let the good times roll
Rea and Marquez undisputed legends of motorcycling! Two super-trated champions, two recordmans of world motorcycling. They wrote the history of this sport and still have pages to write! Bautista, Bagnaia only champions of money and regulation. Congratulations Dorna you are ruining the most beautiful sport in the world! Come on jhonny don't give up enchant us with your guide!
Never read such a load of rubbish………Neither wrote the book…… The one and only one who wrote the book on Racing is the Late Great Sir John Surtees. You lack of knowledge is undisputed for sure. You talk about the Ducati shows this, Rea and Kwacker has won 6 world championships, according to you it’s the rules.
"They wrote the history of this sport and still have pages to write! " lmfao no they didnt AT ALL what planet you on
@@TheDarkSide46 A good answer…….also so far MM has not won the world championship on different machines, others like Rossi have.
'Bautista, Bagnaia only champions of money and regulation.' Shit these people says is hilarious. lol
my FAv riDeR cOuLDN't wiN sO thEy MusT bE chEaTing 🤡🤡🤡🤡
How much did Tommy Searle charge for a feature? 😂
buatista looks so weird the way he turns, looks so unstable compare to others...
01:34 I don't understand how Kawasaki's weakest point is engine. Surely mid/late race tyre degredation is a big issue (?)
Vids need to be longer Jr
We have a limit i'm afraid. Let me speak to the powers above.
I guess you guys are making a film to show us all when you retire obviously after winning one last championship .............with Ducati? It's hard to see you getting beaten like this every week, but I guess harder for you.
We need more crying. Amazing what happens when you go against more skilled riders on equal if not better bikes the past few years isn't it?
You need a change of manufacturer.
Dorna doing everything they can to help Ducati.
This season is probably the worst I've ever seen.
You deserve so much better JR.
Where should I go?
@@jrea65 love to see you on the Ducati Jonny clearly is the best bike there is no doubt you would beat Alvaro with fair machinery all the best champ
@@danmoffa713 He ain't beating Bautista even with Ducati, it's a fight for tyre preservation, no one can create 15 seconds gap casually in long races, Bautista managed soft tyre in Philip Island where Toprak couldn't manage hard tyre, that's the difference, Toprak was second and said that he couldn't believe it.
No one is helping Ducati, you are a moron if you think that an in line 4 bike from 2012 will beat a mighty V4 that's just made recently.
Stop moaning.
@@kestrel3509 is it fuck. It's a fight for straight line speed.
When the Panigale pisses away on the straights every time that simply isn't racing.
Tell the fans that your Rpm still cut at 14.600 every else 15.000 an bautista 16.100 an how Ducati got the Zx10rs Finger Rockers banned as told to me by hardcore Ducati fan. I know your still the best otherwise why would Dorna an FIM had to change the rules an tyres. Anyone with brains knows on the street the Zx10r eats a v4r. Your still the SBK king in my Eyes JR65
Dude, the V4R kills the ZX10RR on the streets and my 23 V4S kills ZX10R easily. The I4 is maxed out. Time for a new bike
Why delude yourself? They got their revs back, and they are even slower this year than last year, you people are complete stupid, different bikes have different bore and stroke and hence, different rev range, that's why Ducati revs higher, it's not ABCD like you think it is.
@@robertsole9970 WSBK models are 200,000$ each, so not really a correct comparison.
@@robertsole9970 it does not idiot put up videos same rider weight stock vs stock 2023 Zx10r vs v4r an show me
The last part is the best! With the little one commenting 😂
As far as I know Kawasaki is much faster in decision taking, compared with the other Japanese factories and react faster in correcting things.
There are 2 factors these days in WSBK. First Ducati have 16000+ revs compared to 14700 of the Japanese bikes. Kawasaki and Yamaha cough off guard on this and never bothered protecting like Ducati was doing when they raced V2. And second, the too obvious weight deficit with Alvaro. Though the rest of the ducati's are nowhere near Jonathan.
Your washed up jonny 😂
