MOTOGP: Rea Rumored As Stoner Sub
Will Jonathan Rea test Casey Stoner's vacant RC213V with an eye on filling in for the champ at Brno on Monday?

PROGRAMMING NOTE: The Czech Republic GP from Brno will air LIVE on SPEED on Sunday, August 26 at 8:00am ET. MotoGP QP will air LIVE on SPEED2 all season long. #MotoGPonSPEED
Word from Brno suggests that Honda World Superbike ace Johnathan Rea will fly directly from Moscow to the Czech Republic on Monday to test Casey Stoner's works Repsol Honda RC213V.
The test would serve as an audition for Rea to fill in for the injured defending champion as he mends (he's expected to miss Misano and Aragon at a minimum).
Obviously, the opportunity to ride the reigning #1 racebike in MotoGP would be a huge opportunity for Rea, who has long been looking for a way to graduate from WSBK to the prototype championship.
This is still to be confirmed and travel issues may prevent it, but look for official word from Honda as early as tomorrow.
