Tarran MacKenzie gets Assen Yamaha wildcard

Tarran MacKenzie gets Assen Yamaha wildcard

Mackenzie will ride with his regular McAMS Yamaha team, with which he took the BSB crown last year, although he will be running with the WSBK version of the R1 with full custom electronics instead of the standard MoTeC ECU used in the British series and a different spec of engine.

“We are looking forward to supporting Tarran and the McAMS Yamaha Team as they make their WorldSBK debut with a wildcard appearance in Assen, after what was an incredibly successful 2021 season for them in the British Superbike Championship,” said Yamaha Europe road racing manager Andrea Dosoli.

“We have enjoyed a long and fruitful working relationship with the McAMS team and their two riders, with a real two-way collaboration bringing benefits for all.

“We are delighted to see Tarran and McAMS step up onto the world stage in Assen, as this fits perfectly with Yamaha’s racing philosophy of offering opportunities to the best riders and teams worldwide.”
