Yamaha Kicks Off 2016 MXGP Season in Qatar

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

After a winter of celebration and anticipation, Yamaha #racing returns to off-road competition this Saturday to open the 2016 #mxgp season under the floodlights in #qatar.

This year Yamaha #racing sends into the field its strongest off-road lineup ever, in every category. From the pinnacle of the sport at #mxgp to the innovative YZ125 Cup in select European nations in search of the next generation of Yamaha champions, everywhere there is off-road #racing there is a Yamaha motorcycle.

FIM World Champion and 2015 #mxgp Rookie of the Year Romain Febvre will line up with his Monster Energy Yamaha Official teammate Jeremy Van Horebeek on technologically advanced YZ450FMs. Swiss rider Valentin Guillod makes his #mxgp start with the Kemea Yamaha Official MX Team on the Yamaha YZ450F.

Van Horebeek won the MX1 Italian Championship in pre-season competition and arrives at the Losail track north of Doha in prime physical form. Teammate Febvre readies his title defense in full strength after a crash-shortened Italian Championship campaign that put five stitches in his elbow.

In MX2 the Kemea Yamaha Official MX Team returns with Benoit Paturel, fresh off a 2-for-3 race sweep in the South of France last weekend. He is joined by Brent Van doninck in his first full season of MX2 after a mid-year promotion in 2015.

At Wilvo Standing Construct Yamaha there are new faces from Russia and Sweden. The dynamic Aleksandr Tonkov arrives fresh from pre-season podiums in Valence, and Alvin Östlund joins as a late replacement for the injured Julien Lieber after the young Swede's very impressive Top-10 finishes in the 3-race Italian Championship on Yamaha YZ250F technology.
