Yamaha Classic Race Team sign-on

The world renowned Yamaha Classic Racing Team will compete at next year's inaugural Isle of Man Classic T.T..

Manxman Allan Brew will lead the effort and contest the 250cc and Formula 2 races.

Modern day T.T. competitors Steve Mercer, Mark Miller and Daniel Cooper will also race machinery provided by former works Yamaha mechanic Ferry Brouwer.

This is the first time bikes from the collection will be raced rather than just making appearances for parade laps.

Ferry says he and the rest of the support team are very excited to be taking on the challenge of the Mountain Course in full racing mode:-
