Jonathan Rea equalled Carl Fogarty's record of 12 World Superbike wins at Assen with a tenacious performance on Saturday.

The Kawasaki rider clinched a stunning eighth win in a row at the legendary Dutch TT circuit in The Netherlands, fending off challenges from home hero Michael van der Mark (PATA Yamaha) and Chaz Davies (Aruba.it Ducati) to bag his third triumph of the 2018 season.

Rea, who is now 21 points clear at the top of the standings, requires only two more victories to match Fogarty’s all-time career record of 59 World Superbike wins.
