Both Carl Fogarty and Johnny Rea have achieved tremendous success in the World Superbike Championship (WSBK) with their respective manufacturers, Ducati and Kawasaki. It is challenging to definitively compare the two combinations and declare one as more dominant than the other, as they achieved their success in different eras of the sport. Fogarty won four World Superbike Championship titles (1994, 1995, 1998, and 1999) and achieved a record 59 race wins. His success with Ducati played a significant role in establishing the manufacturer's dominance during that period.
Johnny Rea and Kawasaki: Since joining Kawasaki in 2015, Johnny Rea has been a force to be reckoned with in WSBK. He has won the championship for six consecutive years (2015-2020), surpassing Fogarty's record for the most title wins. Rea's partnership with Kawasaki has been immensely successful, and he has set numerous records, including the highest number of race wins in WSBK history.
In terms of longevity and consecutive championship wins, Johnny Rea's partnership with Kawasaki has been remarkable. However, Fogarty's achievements and the impact he had on Ducati's dominance in the 1990s cannot be overlooked. Ultimately, the dominance of these combinations can be appreciated within the context of their respective eras, and both Fogarty and Rea have left an indelible mark on WSBK history with their manufacturers.
