The five-time world champion in the FIM Superbike has extended his contract with Kawasaki and KRT for several years.<\/strong><\/p>\n


After five WorldSBK championships in a row, Jonathan Rea is the most successful racing driver in this class. This series of successes is to be continued on both sides, so the contract was extended by several years. How many years the contract was extended has not yet been announced.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Rea:<\/strong> \u201cI am super happy to sign a new contract with Kawasaki<\/a> and KRT. What we have achieved together is incredible. Our success is driven by a great team and of course the base of the project – our Ninja ZX-10RR. I will keep working hard, together with my crew, the engineers at KHI to be in the best condition every single race. This period away from racing has reignited a burning desire to keep winning and continue to improve my skills and the package of our bike. Racing never stands still and all the riders and manufactures are continuing to improve – we must do the same. Now we can fully focus on our 2020 WorldSBK season where racing will restart soon. I want to thank Kawasaki, the team and all my sponsors for their continued support and this great opportunity.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
