'I'm taking things step-by-step and the limit is still quite a way off, but I don't really want to find that limit just yet, I'm taking my time' - Jonathan Rea
World Superbike star Jonathan Rea in action during his Repsol Honda MotoGP debut in testing at Brno on Monday. Rea is set to replace injured world champion Casey Stoner, should the Australian be unfit to ride at the forthcoming Misano and Aragon rounds.
"In case, as doctors anticipate, Casey Stoner is not able to re-join the Repsol Honda Team in time, then Jonathan Rea will replace him in Misano and Aragon"
"The results of the CAT were negative, and the American should be discharged this evening or tomorrow morning, but in any case he won't take part in the Grand Prix."
Casey Stoner is diagnosed with a torn ligament in his right ankle after suffering a high-speed accident, while Ben Spies and Nicky Hayden also crash heavily.
"I just feel completely sorry for Ducati that Valentino has gone there and done nothing but complain about the bike for almost two years" - Casey Stoner.
