We are pleased to announce that we will be making a spot entry in the opening round of the 2021 All Japan Road Race Championship Series, Motegi round.
As you know, last year Yoshimura Japan announced that it would enter the EWC World Endurance Championship as YOSHIMURA SERT Motul.
This time, we will participate in Motegi round as a part of machine development to win the World Endurance Championship.
Kazuki Watanabe is currently under quarantine in Japan due to his participation in the recent test at Le Mans. He will not be able to participate in the pre-test, but we are sure that he will perform well in the main race.
I will not be able to participate in this race as I will be in France, but I hope you will enjoy the dynamic driving of Mr. Watanabe and Yoshimura's state-of-the-art machine.
We look forward to your warm support. -

Although the effects of the Corona disaster are still continuing in 2021, I am very happy that Yoshimura, with the EWC World Endurance Championship at its core, will be able to race again in front of Japanese fans and continue its racing activities in this way.
This year I will be participating in the EWC as a spot rider while also conducting tests, and every time I test, I realize how much fun it is to create a bike that is easier to ride and faster to ride.
With the Suzuka 8 Hours Endurance Road Race being postponed from summer to November, I will not have the chance to race in front of everyone in Japan for a while, but I will give it my all as usual, and I will do my best to make sure that my fans will remember me for a long time to come.
It is a pity that Yohei Kato, our team director, will not be here in Japan, but I will do my best to deliver good news to the engineers in France, and also to deliver good results to everyone who supports YOSHIMURA SERT Motul!
