About Jonathan
Hannspree Ten Kate Honda Superbike star Jonny Rea started his career riding motocross, rising through the ranks to become British champion. Initially, he resisted the switch to circuit racing, considering it “too boring”. However, in 2005 Red Bull organised a ride on a factory Honda Fireblade and the Northern Irish rider hasn’t looked back since.
In 2007, he finished as British Superbike runner-up before moving to the World Supersport series with Ten Kate Honda in 2008. He took his first victory at Brno and was in contention for the title right up until the final round, before losing out to his team mate Andrew Pitt. Jonny made the move up to Superbikes for the 2009 season and finished the year with two race wins and a further six podium finishes for fifth place overall.
Rea made a strong start to the 2010 World Superbikes season, winning both races in Assen, Netherlands in April. Check out the video here: -
