P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Paul Denning says the Jerez WorldSBK test was ‘surreal’ after watching six-time world champion Jonathan Rea make his debut with the Pata Yamaha Prometeon team.

Jonathan Rea finished the two-day test in third place, behind Remy Gardner and Nicolo Bulega, both Yamaha riders. Rea, a former Kawasaki rider, quickly adapted to the Yamaha R1 as he aims to replicate the success of Toprak Razgatlioglu. Rea expressed his excitement about joining Yamaha, mentioning his previous experience with Yamaha bikes and his father’s racing career with the brand. His crew chief for the upcoming season will be Andrew Pitt, replacing Pere Riba, whom Rea had success with at Kawasaki. Replacing Razgatlioglu will be a challenge for Rea, but he is expected to be strong in 2024. The team principal, Paul Denning, is excited about the quick transition and the potential for success with Rea on board.
