Rea prepares for MotoGP debut

Jonathan Rea prepares to make his MotoGP debut as he replaces injured world champion Casey Stoner in the Repsol Honda team at Sunday's race in San Marino.

Rea will deputise for the Australian Stoner at this weekend's race and the following round in Aragon.

The Ulsterman was one of the few top riders to take part in Friday's practice session which was badly affected by rain.

Rea was the fifth fastest of the riders who did manage to get in a few laps.
