First successful WSB title defence since Foggy. Well done Jonathan.The best helmet design as well.

Sorry gents got to disagree Chaz Davies best helmet design and stand out rider of the season for me , if they could have got the duke set up earlier in the season he would have easily taken the title.

Have followed Chaz for a long time now,but "ifs"and "buts" don't win a championship.Years back Scott Russell won it with consistancy but not a lot of wins.Foggy moaned like anything,but we all know,points make prizes,whether we like it or not.Last time I looked Rea rep helmets were on back order..Glad I bought mine when they were launched for this season.

His race craft is second to none, definitely Mr Consistency.

Just looking at the stats, he won more races in the last 2 years with Kawasaki than his whole time with Honda.

Honda have not won much since he left them.

Have to agree on the thoughts on Honda and until the new blade get sorted that's not going to change ( worried for my man Mc pint at the TT now after the Honda WSB effort ).
But .... johnny Rea how long before it gets boring sorry scrub that it's getting boring, admittedly this weekends racing was close , exciting and good to watch especially as Lowes stayed upright in both races and 4th in each but come on do we really want to watch Rea winning all the time ? I never liked him but respect his talent immensely and he went up hugely in my estimations for mentoring Kyle Ryde ( I'm a big big fan ) i just hope this weekend was not a sign of more of the same despite the change in rules to try and stop exactly that
