Yamaha Motor Europe is pleased to confirm the rider lineup for the GMT94 Yamaha Official EWC Team ahead of the opening round of the 2017/2018 FIM Endurance World Championship at the Bol D'or on the 16th-17th September. GMT94 dominated the 2016/2017 season as the Yamaha R1 proved to be the machine to beat, winning three races in a row on their way to lifting the title at Suzuka. The reigning Endurance World Champions will remain unchanged for the new season, with David Checa, Niccol Canepa and Mike Di Meglio returning to defend their crown.
