Recent Suzuka 8 Hours winner and official Pata Yamaha SBK rider Alex Lowes will join the MotoGP riders at next Monday's test at the Czech Republic circuit.
This is a reward granted by Yamaha to the British rider who will join his Endurance teammate, Pol Espargaro, for the occasion.
alex lowes: “I'm really looking forward to Monday's test on the YZR-M1. I greatly thank Yamaha for providing me with this opportunity, as well as Hervé Poncharal and the Monster Yamaha Tech3 team for making this possible. Brno is a fantastic circuit and it will be good to work with Pol again, but this time in his own garage! It has already been a good month with the victory at Suzuka and a very positive test this week in World Superbike. Yamaha giving me a chance to try one of the best MotoGP bikes in the world will be a great experience for me as a rider and really the icing on the cake! »
