Wow that was very emotional Johnny!! I loved to see the Irwin boys saying those nice things about you and how they look up to you. And fuck me, Northern Ireland just looks stunning!!! What a place, what a legend your are Jonathan Rea. Big love and support from Israel.
Not only is Johnny a fantastic ambassador for the sport but also for Northern Ireland. The fact that the compition has got hotter in WSBK and he's still on top shows the skill, determination and character of him. The very best of luck for a number 6 world championship from Team Fabulous..#69

You are the best of this generation, use your influence to help young riders get a chance to enter moto racing 🙏🏼. My small team in Ukraine look up to you and for 2021 will put out 2 300cc bikes to find new talent.

Class video JR. Never been a motorbike racing fan as i was always watching and playing football but you always make me look out for the results these passed number of years. Proud to say the least that you are representing Our Wee Country! Thank you for flying our flag all around the world!
A credit to his family for bringing him up the way they have,humble,kind and a true gentleman in a cut throat sport.He deserves all the recognition he’s getting.The greatest superbike rider of all time bar none.Well done JR we’re all very proud of ya.
Northern Ireland's town and nature look beautiful. That's why Jonathan is THEE gentle man. I'll definitely go NI one day. I'm looking forward to you achieving 6x world title this weekend. Best of luck Jonathan! Full Vamos!!!!!!
I am an American, born and raised but my family heritage is both Irish and German. I have red hair as my mom does as well, so I favor the Irish side more. That being said, I lived in London England from 1977- 1979 and got to see all of the UK. Its beautiful land. I might be an American, but I am a huge Johnny Rea fan!! Such a humble classy man with phenomenal motorcycle racing skills. A pure pleasure to watch and read about. I'm pulling for you in 2022 to win your 7th WSBK Title! You can do it with the help of your team mates.🇮🇹🏁🏁🏁 Grace and hope to you and your family.
What an awesome reel Jonny. I raced with your Dad and Joey on short circuits, it was an epic time. As an expat in Australia now I could really relate to this reel. Tnx for sharing
muy lindo video !!! gran campeon orgullo de tu familia , de irlanda y todos los que te seguimos!!! saludos de un descendiente de irlandeses desde Argentina!!
Nice to see you back home mate! Loved watching the battles in the early days between you and Hamy at Ballykelly..... A Superstar in the making 6x World Champion soon. So happy for you 😉✊
That was an absolutely incredible story. I grew up hearing crazy stories about Joey Dunlop, and it's just amazes me you stories are so intertwined....all the best.
The Dark Hedges always look better on video ! 😄 Good luck for the coming season, from everyone in NI ! 👍 I just hope we might get to some races this year, if they allow spectators back, and give you some massive hometown support at Assen. 🥳 🍺 😄

Great win in very difficult conditions .Garrett has nothing to loss riding over his head always bites you .

Brilliant stuff. Northern Ireland has best talent in the world for motorsport. The lack of support and facilities are a complete joke totally disgraceful. Forget football wee are rubbish at it lol.
The reason why is that media outlets like the BBC are totally anti-Northern Ireland and well.. let’s face it anti-British as a whole. The only time they’ll let us hear about Northern Ireland is when something bad is happening. That creates a situation where everyone else in the UK is basically separated from Northern Ireland, its people and their achievements. Why would us Lot fund and invest in you if we don’t know you exist? It’s been designed that way. And we will make sure this ends. Love from London 🇬🇧
