“I am very happy with the opportunity that Kemea Yamaha is offering to race the FIM MX2 World Championship. Whenever I start a race, I give 100 percent every time. My plan is to continue to do that and get better every day. I have already tested the YZ250F and it was great. This bike really suits my style.”
Erik Eggens
“Unfortunately, Brylyakov is out for a while with a knee injury. That's why we decided to sign another high-level rider. I am pleased that we can give Rodriguez this opportunity. Okay, he comes from supercross and that is something different from motocross. But he has match rhythm and is fit. Of course he will need some time to adapt to MX2, to the World Championship. Although he already performed strongly in two Grand Prix last season. With the support of Yamaha and Kemea he will be able to show great things again.” Says former GP rider Erik Eggens, who currently works at Yamaha Motor Europe.
