Jonathan Rea has capped another unstoppable race weekend having celebrated clinching the 2018 World Superbik𓄧e championship with victory in the opening race 🦄by completing a dominant double at Magny-Cours to stretch his winning run to eight consecutive races.

The four-time World Superbike champion bolted from ninth on the reverse grid to third place by the end of the opening lap in race two to slot in behind Aruba.it Racin🙈g Ducati’s Chaz Davies and Pata Yamaha’s Michael van der Mark.

With seven straight wins coming into the Magny-Cours Sunday race, Rea made light work of g🍒etting past van der Mark for second place at the start of the third place and began to pursue Davies who had already pulled out a one-second advantage.

Despite a couple of misjudged passes at the Adelaide h𒆙airpin, Rea eventually got the move done on Davies on lap 11 before gradually pulling away for a comfortable victory.

Rea now has the opp♚ortunity to take the all-time wins record in a single season if he also completes🅺 doubles in Argentina and Qatar for the final two rounds.
