    Stupid nickname. He might as well have named himself Taserface.

    The model er i mean the maniac was almost 3 secs off the pace. Didn't know botox rusted.

    Gonna be hard to beat Bautista but hopefully it will be an entertaining season.

    He won my respect in 2021 when he decided to fight hard against Toprak instead of just complain like Scott did. Rea is a fighter and he's won my respect for that.

    Maniac is only 2 tenths of Rea’s fastest time today. Hoping the progression continues

    Where was/is Rea on the sheets? 2/10th is awesome unless the top dudes are 2-3 seconds up the road. Both are testing new bikes to them so thats refreshing.

    Rea was #1 this afternoon, granted Iannone was 8th 2 tenths back but that's still progress

    That seems pretty impressive to me. Should be a good year next year. I may have to buy WSBK and MotoGP.

    Its surprising to me that by now these guys contracts arent written like- Good until the checkered flag of the last race of the season-END. Why have a contract extend out a month after the last race. Everyones new contract is gonna be in place by the last race of the season so there shouldnt be any reason to extend. Your not doing any post-season testing if you are leaving anyways...

    Marketing and promotion don't stop at the checkered flag. Marquez was in Japan working for Honda last week alongside the F1 drivers.

    How did the rest of the test today go? Did Rea set any times on the R1?
