Riders Kenny Roberts and Eddie Lawson will take part in a Yamaha event during the Red Bull United States Grand Prix, which will take place next July 24 at Laguna Seca.

The event will be attended by around 200 fans of the Japanese brand, who will be the most fortunate, as they will be able to ride with the World Champions for a few laps of the track. This event is part of a promotional package offered by the race organizers to encourage people to attend.

So Roberts and Lawson will be riding Yamaha R1s, but not standard machines: they will be GYT-R models.

Below you can see the statements from Bob Starr:

This opportunity is part of a weekend of celebrations that Yamaha has planned in honor of our 50th anniversary at the Grands Prix.

This Friday event is just one of the surprises we have in store for MotoGP fans during the weekend.
