Go to the directory where Stellarium is installed, edit data/ssysytem.ini and change jupiter/rot_rotation_offset from it's current value to 140. This puts the GRS in about the right place.

Are you sure that the red spot position is incorrect. The position shown should be the true position however light travel time must be taken into account for visual observation and can vary a great deal depending on Jupiters position. This can be compensated for in stellarium by setting light_travel_time = true in the config.ini file
