Jonathan Rea's day in the SBK tests in Barcelona got off to a good start. At the end of the morning session, the world champion finished first with a time of 1.41.910. Walking through the pit lane, we noticed something new on the rider's board... A portrait of his whole family!
And, along with this, Jonathan also developed a very quick communication method to use with the team so that he can read the board easily, even at more than 300 km/h: thumbs-up emoticons for the sixth lap, as if to say: "The sixth lap was really good, keep it up". No numbers, the initials of other riders, and the immediacy of emoticons.
