The McAMS Racing Yamaha team have unveiled their new-look R1 ahead of this weekend’s opening Bennetts British Superbike Championship action with the first R&G Official Test of the season at Circuito de Navarra.
The Mar-Train team unveiled Danny Kent’s 2025 McAMS Racing Yamaha they prepare for their opening test of the season this weekend in Spain. The 2015 Moto3 World champion claimed his first win with the team at the Brands Hatch season finale last year, ending the season on a high and claiming fourth place in the overall standings.
Kent said: “I love the new look for 2025 and feel excited to get back aboard the Yamaha R1. The team have worked really hard throughout the winter break, and I’ve been working hard on my own preparation too. I’ve had a long time to reflect on 2024 and we know what areas we need to improve on. I can’t wait to get out to Spain to see the team and begin our testing plan.”
Crew Chief Chris Anderson said: “It’s been a long winter, but the wait is nearly over. We’ve been flat out in the workshop, putting in the hours to build two fresh bikes for testing, and I can’t wait to see them roll down pitlane with Danny onboard. The 2025 Yamaha R1 livery looks absolutely mint, seeing it out on track is going to be a great feeling. We’ve got a solid game plan for the first official test, and the whole team is itching to get stuck in, make progress, and be ready to push when the lights go out at the opening round.”
Valentina Slater, McAMS Ambassador, commented: “We are really happy with the 2025 McAMS Racing livery and can’t wait for the season to officially begin. 2024 was a positive year for the team, Danny proved that he is capable at battling consistently at the front and we can’t wait to see him carry that momentum into another season. I’m looking forward to seeing what the team can achieve, starting with two days of testing in Spain throughout the coming days.”
Team Owner Tim Martin concluded: “Myself and the rest of the team are really excited to return to the track at Navarra. It’s been a long winter break and we’re all itching to get back to work. We had a really positive end to 2024, hopefully we can carry that momentum towards the start of the year and beyond. As I’m sure you’d agree, the 2025 livery is a real stand-out. We can’t wait to see it out on track.”
