Jonathan Rea says ‘I really love the Yamaha’ despite ongoing struggles
Jonathജan Rea admits ‘I really love’ the Yamaha R1 despite suffering a disappointing start to his 2024 WorldSBK campaign.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea had to wait six races for his first points of the 2024 WorldSBK campa꧒ign, after another difficult round followed in Catalunya.
The six-time Superbike champion endured one of his worst weekend𓃲s ever at Phillip Island as he left the Australian round scoreless and scratching his head due to the lack of perform⭕ance shown.

- Alvaro Bau꧋tista: ‘If I go on the kerb Toprak will go over the kerb’
Catཧalunya was a better showing, however, Rea was still not as str♎ong as expected.
To Rea’s defence, Race 1 ended in retirement on lap one due ꦬto a problem with his clutch, before finishing 13th in the Superpole Race.
But Rea managed to deliver a very gꦚood result in Race 2 as he moved up the order early on and kept his tyre wear under control.
Rea finished the final race of the weekend in eighth and will be eager to build on t൲hat at the next round in Assen, which is one of his best circu🌞its.
Speaking about the progression in Catalunya, Rea said: “I really love the bike and the character ꧋and the engin༺e is amazing but to be really fast on the bike is hard.
“The rate of progression and development has been very slow, much slower than expected an𒐪d than necessary to ma🎃ke progress.
“We have to trust 🐻the process and trust that we can make it b⛎etter.
“It’d be much worse if I came here and said that I’m doing everything, the bike is perfect etc, no; we have a lot of margin to improve, both my understanding of🎃 the bike but also the crew’s help and support of making it my bike.
“That’s why🌄 I’m not super disappointed about where we are; I have to be patient.
“We’ve had a lot of strange things happen this year; maybe💞 the first test was the smoothest!ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ”
