Jonathan Rea and Hiroshi Aoyama testing in Qatar

First thing, that is not Jonathan Rea on the Castrol Honda, but new team mate Hiroshi Aoyama who has decided to run the #4 plate that he used when he won the 2009 250cc World Championship title, while Rea has reverted back to his old #65.
The Castrol Honda team has gotten a head start on testing for the 2012 season and decided on the Losail track in Qatar this time for their testing sessions after being hit by constantly bad weather when they conducted their tests at Miller Motorsports Park, Portimao and Aragon last season.

Aoyama is getting his first taste of the CBR1000RR and Pirelli tires, while Rea is testing the 2011 Superbike with 2012 parts.
Testing will continue tomorrow.
