I love the insight on the races. Gerloff has to be the coolest guy in the paddock. His commwnts on Toprak just again shows how good he is. Eight place in race two is a start. You'll be on the podium again shortly 👍
In Garretts last vlog he mentions it again and says about Topraks data "he is slightly better everywhere" I think it's fair to say the "IT" IS- TALENT...
I like Garrett's mature attitude towards the rider who has achieved it. Because how much frustration it can bring is much more visible on Garrett's Vlog. He really lets it out there.
1. Hang in there mate, it's matter of time to be on the podium again. You got this Johny. 2. Editing is getting quite banger tbh, well done to whoever is making video production for Johny's channel.
Production quality of these videos are just amazing, please keep them coming. I can’t wait to see JR fighting for the wins in blue, Assen can be a great start. Cheers from Turkey
Always my champ Jonathan and look forward to seeing you race in Assen. Onwards and upwards Jonathan, you are a legend. Thanks for sharing behind the scenes with us. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Once again, great video. Love all the behind the scenes stuff. You have a great video production team. You are a great ambassador to the sport and you'll get there. Always rooting for you.
You will make it you have the skills and determination to succeed a new challenge is hard but to achieve it will be awesome for you and for your fans all the best from a fan in the Uk thank you
Considering the fact that you actually raced for the first time and got P8 on this circuit. I don’t have words. I salute your efforts and Yamaha efforts of being so cooperative. I know great things take time but this one will come soon.💙
JR, you have been in tough places before. You are the brave, you know the way, you never give up, so you will find it. You have a good team, keep them close like you know. We are with you.
@@gloriousmka9818 Agree. Nevertheless you need to watch Gerloff's Vlog to understand how much frustration Toprak's results brings to him (or other BMW riders) Only Garrett is a fine guy who still can show respect to the rider who achieved it. So it can hit you hard but with a mature personality as Gerloff has you can handle things better than a nonsense talking Redding. VdM is on level there with Garrett.
As you say Step by Step! The only way is up from here! Had a great weekend supporting this weekend at Catalunya and getting a cameo appearance in the vid 😂 Keep up the great content 👍🏻
Stay strong Johnny.. Eventually you will gell with the yamaha after the bugs are ironed out.. Remember the bike needs to get to know you too aswell. Once you bond you pair will be a formidable team.. Keep her lit. Team Fabulous #69
Cracking insight in the world of WSB thanks for the openness and honesty good and bad JR, keep positive your time will shine without a doubt enjoy the racing 👏👏🙌
Welcome to Yamaha JR65.....hope you bring yamaha on top again...good luck and all the very best...👍 And how is the difference between yamaha and kawasaki...??!!
They have concessions in motogp and wsbk. They had private tests etc recently. They r pushing but euro bikes are dominating ALL motorsport right now. Actually kawa was better cause the wsbk engine rules now allow them to get more top end. I think the R1 is limited in what they can push out of it in its current form. Japanese need to get serious or itll be Ducatti/bmw/ktm dominating next decade
Must be tough for an outright winner to struggling when others have been able to get results. They’ll come on the Yamaha for sure, stick in💪 These videos on a side note are being so well produced, top quality 👌
@@deanmsimpson opinions are like Well you know..... Fact is Rea was looking okay & fast in Testing (like he has in his last 2 Kawasaki seasons) & come the Races he's struggling. Begs the question was he just showboating for laptimes in that period whereas other people were delevoping their Bikes. And what's nice to see is that now Alex Lowes doesn't have to let someone finish ahead of him, He is Beating Rea at all the circuits so far.......
@@alanoliver379 I was replying to your earlier comment re. "gifted". You've moved on to a different point now. Yes, agreed Alex Lowes is doing great. Maybe he's now been able to flourish now it's not the 'second' rider in the team. I don't know about "showboating". I'm quite sure he's had to keep developing the Kawasaki for 8 or 9 years. The goal posts have moved. Competition has increased. He will have to adapt again and further. It's early days at the moment.
It will come to back to ya johnny bro we know you got it in you bruvva, it's gonna be that painful process of everything falling in to place at the right time ✊🏼 let's go get it ❤.
You'll get there champ, I was like a bear with a sore head after the racing and its not me thats racing. It could be worse, you could be on the Moto GP bike then you'd be in trouble.
Hopefully you can give yourself time to get used to the Yamaha and soon be back where you want to be at the front, I remember how you used to ride the Honda Fireblade a decade ago always having to make up the time on the corners. I'm 100% you will be there very soon.
JR you gotta change inner voice. You're JFkingRea man! Been a fan since I met ya your rookie year 2008 at Miller MSP in Utah while everyone was out at dinner. Go look at the old vids, watch your championships, wear your rings man! The self doubt is killing ya. It's not the bike you can & have won on many bikes man. Next round walk in like the 6 time mf'ing champ man. Top 5's next round. Build & push LFG!
Would love to know your thoughts of how well Alex is riding the Kawasaki and knowing you would have been up there with him in these first two rounds? Also, does the Yamaha seem to still not have the grunt on the straights? Toprak seems happy with the BMW speed. Good luck mate and keep your head up. Remember you're a multiple CHAMPION and you will figure out the Yamaha.
@@jrea65 Hope you did not take my reply negative in anyway. Wish you would have stayed GREEN, but I get it. Good luck buddy, you will win on the Yamaha.
Remy Gardner should have got the Factory Ride & moved Rea into the satellite Team at Best. I didn't think Dosoli & Denning were that Starry Eyed by Hey ho! 🤷
Fuck it JR your still the same man you were when you won your last championship. That hasn't changed so don't let all the shit get on top of you. You will prevail. Just keep chipping 💪
It must be a torment but when you find your mojo mojo and your team unlock that missing bit of the puzzle you will be back on top easy to say but dont dwell on the down turn small point my lad is learning as a goalkeeper is not to let the weight of a defeat lead you to another one Heads up and move to the next challenge or it will drag all those around you down
What, that Yamaha is a championship winning bike. He must be wondering how Toprak braked on it. The rider seems to make difference in WSBK, Ionnone comes back and is fighting for podiums ahead of Petrucci and other ducati riders. Toprak joins BMW and gets it 1st and 2nd places where it has never been
Deliberate or faulty Audio at start, that echo effect is annoying ( for me anyway). Anyway, keep plugging away. It will click and you will find your rythmn with the team and bike.
When racers stop winning, they search for the answer's to why, mainly the bike and riding style adaption. But often it's the uncomfortable fact that they've had their day, to many crashes and the unconscious self preservation gene kicks in without knowing it, pushing that last tenth of a lap.
I love the insight on the races. Gerloff has to be the coolest guy in the paddock. His commwnts on Toprak just again shows how good he is. Eight place in race two is a start. You'll be on the podium again shortly 👍
do you ever wonder when they say "We look at Toprak's data and we don't know how he does IT"- What is the IT? What is it Toprak does so much better?
@@jeffjackson8686 Literally riding the bike. Data can only show so much.
@@jeffjackson8686 It's probably braking to the point where other riders would go wide, or carry corner speed where others would tuck the front.

His name isn't Johny lad it's Jonathan so would be Jonny 🤣👌
All love mate but please get his name right, it's painful to see 🤣
Love hearing all the riders bounce off each other on how they and bikes are doing, keep up the great work JR it’ll come
JR, thanks for being transparent even when the weekend sucked. WE are rooting for you bro! Can;t wait to see how you rebound!
Eighth place definitely not bad against all those Ducati's, keep up the great work! Keep it smooth, smooth as fast!
Great seeing the interactions with the other riders off the main TV channels, and the pragmatism of JR, will come soon sir.
Thx for the insight. Your transparency is amazing. The flow will come soon and we'll be seeing you up front again. ❤ Looking forward to Assen...
These are cinematic masterpieces. Bravo to the filmmakers and editors!
Great video. Coming back for an 8th place on the 2nd race was inspiring. You will get this!
Keep at it, keep your head up, at least things are headed in a positive direction! I'm looking forward to watching Donington in person.
See you there
Production quality of these videos are just amazing, please keep them coming. I can’t wait to see JR fighting for the wins in blue, Assen can be a great start. Cheers from Turkey
That means a lot, Gaz does a great job editing them!
Always my champ Jonathan and look forward to seeing you race in Assen. Onwards and upwards Jonathan, you are a legend. Thanks for sharing behind the scenes with us.
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Glad you enjoy it!
Awesome vid, very honest, thanks JR, we all believe you will get there. I feel like you made some good progress this meeting

Absolutely!!

Cheers Jonathan and keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍🏁

Thank you! Will do!

Really insightful and interesting to see the behind the scenes even when a weekend doesn't go your way, looking forward to the success,
See you in Assen !, looking forward to it!
JR, you have been in tough places before. You are the brave, you know the way, you never give up, so you will find it. You have a good team, keep them close like you know. We are with you.
Hang in there JR, new bike, new team, new challenges.... looking forward to seeing you fight with AB & TR again soon !
It was never going to be easy. Your mental game is strong and that's what you need right now. You got this 👊
Wow gerloff really catch my attention there❤
Looks like Toprak's results hit him hard.
@@a.a.8037 If the result hit him, he wouldn't call him a legend. Like Redding, he would say "I can beat him, I'm better" and console himself :)

Good Job buddy we with you, keep learning.
Keep the chin up Jonathan.
It will come good & these low points will make the high points so much sweeter.
I’m with you there buddy! Cant wait
Hang in there champ it'll come good!
No it wont, was his biggest mistake leaving kawa
Never leave you alone, man!

Much appreciated
Welcome to Yamaha JR65.....hope you bring yamaha on top again...good luck and all the very best...👍 And how is the difference between yamaha and kawasaki...??!!
2:59 is that Kawasaki green you are missing??
Must be difficult at the moment, it’ll come good though 😁
These videos are ace too !
Dear JR, what are your thoughts on the R1? it seems to still have its problems on the straights. Is Yamaha Racing planning to do anything about it?
They have concessions in motogp and wsbk. They had private tests etc recently. They r pushing but euro bikes are dominating ALL motorsport right now. Actually kawa was better cause the wsbk engine rules now allow them to get more top end. I think the R1 is limited in what they can push out of it in its current form. Japanese need to get serious or itll be Ducatti/bmw/ktm dominating next decade
If it would be easy, it wouldn't be fun. Keep going champ.
Always!
Incredible video footage, even if it wasn't a W.
Keep it up JR, you'll be back there in no time.
Always great to see from champions perpective. Ducati is just in another level really hard to keep up with them.
Stay strong, you can do it !!!! 💪
Just keep at it.. we believe in you
Don't get down on yourself, you are a professional, just work it through.
Keep fighting JR your confidence looked back in final race. Yamaha needs to get it together hope the test helped
Step by step I’m sure we will get there!
Must be tough for an outright winner to struggling when others have been able to get results. They’ll come on the Yamaha for sure, stick in💪
These videos on a side note are being so well produced, top quality 👌
Great video thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Keep going. You will get there. 👍
Keep the head up CHAMP IT WILL COME JR SIMPLY THE BEST 🇬🇧
Thanks buddy!
The video production on your channel is spot on. Unfortunately youtube doesn't get you wins.
it will come, when you don't catch a break its easy to get disheartened, come on , we are rooting for you! Keep the faith
We go again! Next up is a good one 🤙
JR.... champions don't "catch a break"..... champions make their own luck! Hang in there!!
Can't catch a break? You were gifted the 2019 Championship by Alvaro if my memory serves me correctly....
"Can't catch a Break" what has been handed a developed Bike by someone else in 2015 & Alvaro handing you the 2019 Title? More like "Give me a Break!"
@@alanoliver379 "gifted" BS. Bautista lost it. JR won it. There was no gift. World Championships are not given.

dont be so hard on yourself jonathan that last race you showed a lot of promise so let,s hope this is where the magic begins.
Hope so buddy
It will come to you and you will not need to look back. Just forward JR
The bike is good you've got to start twisting that throttle and start to enjoy it and start to kick ass you are JR..........
I was gutted for you , preseason was looking so good for you JR
Still a long way to go
It will come to back to ya johnny bro we know you got it in you bruvva, it's gonna be that painful process of everything falling in to place at the right time ✊🏼 let's go get it ❤.
We will get there, of that I’m sure!!!!
King is back
Keep pushing 🚀
jonny can you guys add a link for the Yamaha Merch. cheers
TBH seeing you at the back just shows how fast/competitive it is. 99% is not good enough. Crazy!
Ye skitter! That was difficult trying to pause that at 3:00 😂
Fight the good fight Johnny!
You use the struggle and let it fuel you and you channel that anger and focus into a 7th championship.
She looks great in that green dress mate 👌😂
Yeah, but how often would Les Dennis suddenly pop into your mind when you're on the job 😂😂😂
😎😎😎😎😎😎
😎Today’s word😎
😎 Disaster 😎

Oakleys! 😎😎
You'll get there champ, I was like a bear with a sore head after the racing and its not me thats racing. It could be worse, you could be on the Moto GP bike then you'd be in trouble.
Those raider interactions are fab
We will get there, no question. People forget it took toprak a full season to figure out the package. Were 2 rounds in
No doubt, step by step
It will come JR. I know you are frustrated, it will come. ✊️
videography is amazing, only complaint is its not long enough.
Gaz doing great. You really think longer?
@@jrea65 Well 15mins is a good length, but if they’re a little bit longer I wouldn’t mind. Either way the quality is there.

10/10 for production . Easily mistake this for a netflix series . Unbelievable
8th and still not where you wanna be with the feeling I’d see that as a win mate , it will click JR trust the process mate
KEEP YOU CHIN UP JR YOUL BE BACK MATE YOUR TO GOOD
keep grinding!
Always
Pro tip though first gear is at the bottom lol couldn't help myself.
Everyone loves a smart arse! 😂😂😂
@jrea65 lol, in all seriousness, I wish you nothing but the best. You're a champ, and what will be will be I'm rooting for you every race weekend.
Fuck it JR your still the same man you were when you won your last championship. That hasn't changed so don't let all the shit get on top of you. You will prevail. Just keep chipping 💪

❌Championship👎
✅Big Check🤙
Chin up it will come it's all new it's not a kawasaki all new

Yamaha are going the same way as Honda in racing and it is sad to see, 2 great brands getting beaten by the Europeans
