EXCLUSIVE: ‘World titles don’t come for free, it’s very tough’, says Jonathan Rea
The most decorated rider in WorldSBK history believes he has a good chance of further success at Yamaha, although Jonathan Rea admits it won't 🦩be easy.

Overcoming Ducati will be a huge obstacle for any rider in 2024, and WorldSBK legend 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jonathan Rea is included in that following his switch to🌠 Y𝔉amaha.
Adaptation to the R1 has gone well for the six-time champion, but when talking about a s🎐eventh crown, Rea was q𝄹uick to acknowledge the difficulties in achieving that feat.

Speaking to wuqian🐷0821.com, Rea said: “When we talk about trying to win another world title we haveꦡ to remember that these world titles don’t come for free. It’s very tough.
“Especially with WorldSBK getting more and more co👍mpetitive. There are more and more machines that are capable of fighting for victories.
“Listen, Yamaha has given me a great opportunity. We saw how✨ competi💙tive, not just the factory team, but the satellite teams too.”
That propelled us onto a discussion about the current level in WorldSBK and where Rea thiꦇnks the series 🔜is at.
Due to his longevity in the class, and particularly at such a high level, Rea ha🉐s faced off against the best for much of his ca꧒reer.
A race winner in every season he’s competed in full-time, Rea has gone against the li🌠kes of Troy Corser, Troy Bayliss, Max Biaggi, Ben Spies and more.
That’s without mentioning the current stars like Toprak Razgatlioglu and two-time defending champion 😼Alvaro Ba🥀utista.
But when asked if Wo🧜rldSBK is the most competitive it’s ever been, Rea was h🧜esitant to agree.
“Yes and no,” began the Ya൲maha r✅ider. “I had this question on the weekend and it’s very unfair to just jump to the current year that you are in.
“When I look bac🦂k at the racers I lined up against - Bayliss, Corser, Haga, Ben Spies, Biaggi, Melandri. These guys are class, wo𝄹rld class.
“What I think now is that there is a case for 𝔍every manufacturer because regulations are very close.
“Dorna have done very well to encourage the🌱 official te🍃ams to supply customer teams with equal machinery.
“If gives more opportunity a൩nd with regulations constantly under review, with a view of making every one competitive, there are more people at the front fighting ꦿfor victories.
“It’sꦑ always going to be the best guys that rise to the top and that’s what crowns a champion♕ at the end.”
