Britain’s Alex Lowes will test with the Monster Yamaha MotoGP test at Monday’s Brno test as a thank you for winning the Suzuka Eight-Hours.

"I'm really looking forward to Monday's test on the YZR-M1. I'm very thankful to Yamaha for providing me the opportunity, and to Hervé Poncharal and the Monster Yamaha Tech3 team for making it possible,” said Lowes.

“Brno is a fantastic circuit and it will be good to work with Pol again, from inside his own garage this time! It's been a good month already with the Suzuka victory and a really positive test this week on the World Superbike. Yamaha giving me the chance to try one of the best MotoGP bikes in the world will be a great experience for me as a rider and really is the icing on the cake.”
