Yamaha hosts World MotoGP champion Jorge Lorenzo at BIC

I saw several people riding bikes on the streets. "I would also like to thank Yamaha for organising this visit", said Lorenzo. Lorenzo was welcomed euphorically by Indian biking and motorsport lovers as he rode Yamaha's flagship bike YZF-R3 on the race track at the Buddh International Circuit. I would also like to add that the BIC is the fantastic track of worldwide standards and riding the YZF-R3 with Indian race enthusiasts was a great experience. Having invited Lorenzo to India, Yamaha India hopes that their annual Yamaha R15 One Make Race Championship will receive a much needed boost. "I am sure they would be interested in seeing the best bikers of the world racing in front of them and we would be glad to put up a show", said the three-time World Champion. It has very different corners, the back straight is more than one km long so it can really test riders. "Overall, a very good circuit". As part of his visit, Lorenzo met 30 lucky R3 owners, who got a chance to share the same track with the champion racer.

Starting from final place on the grid, Rossi produced a heroic ride and had already moved up to ninth by the fourth lap and with 20 laps remaining, he had moved into sixth, he would eventually move up to fourth, but by the time he had open road ahead of him the leading three were over 20 seconds ahead.

Jorge Lorenzo has had a particularly impressive season this year with Yamaha, as he won yet another championship. His outstanding performance and winning streak over the years has taken the Spaniard to receive a World Championship title and the only Spanish rider with the most wins in MotoGP as of 2015.
