The 2022 WorldSBK championship will see Jonathan Rea take part in his 14th season in the premier cla♔ss as he goes in search of title #7.

The Kawasaki rider is far and away the series’ most successful rider after having clinched six world titles since joining the Japanese manufacturer in 2015, a number that is two ahead oဣf another Superbike legend in Carl Fogarty. 

But where Rea has really separated himself is race wins as he accumulated nearly double the tally of Fogarty - Rea has 112 wins at present compaಞred to the man known as ‘Foggy’ who has 59.  

When speaking about what success means anꦛd looks like, Rea said: "Winning is like an addiction, whether you feel physically good or bad.&☂nbsp;

"Winning is our focus and our goal. Being successful is 🍎about winning, but for me it's more than just t🌌hat. It's about staying healthy, having fun in the races and enjoying it with my team and family, taking on every challenge and every hurdle."

What many don’t witness is the level 𒀰of effort and sacrifice that goes into winning, particularly when it relates to the consistency with which Rea has a🎃chieved it. 

The Northern Irishman, who alluded to outsiders only seeing the ‘beautiful moments’🧔 of a rider’s success, will need another huge effort in 2022 if he’s to continue with the same ty🍌pe of results.

Rea will return to the #65 after being beaten to last year’s crown by Toprak Razgatlioglu, who will be even more determined to retain his title as a move to Moto🔯GP could be beckoning for 2023.  

"Everyone seesꦏ our dominance in the races, but nobody sees what's going on behind the scenes," Rea con🐬tinued. 

"No one sees me busting my ass every single day. At home, in training, working on every detail. Outsiders only see the beautiful moments, but n🌌o one sees how hard we work forꦬ it."
