WHY CHOOSE YAMAHA?

Yamaha Motor won its first race just one week after the company was founded and ever since then we’ve been a constant force in both on and off-road motorcycle racing.

Yamaha’s bLU cRU programme, first launched in 2015, is a platform to support the next generation of young riding talent to take the next steps towards a professional career in both.

The programme creates a professional environment that is used to encourage, nurture and build tomorrow’s racing stars through the guidance and unparalleled experience of the Yamaha Racing world.

The Yamaha bLU cRU R3 Challenge UK offers a perfect entry point to Yamaha’s racing pyramid, which begins at the grass roots, local level and ends at the premier Grand Prix stage.

It is open to any Yamaha R3 rider competing in the HEL Performance British Junior Supersport Championship, which runs alongside the prestigious Bennetts British Superbike Championship. The bLU cRU R3 Challenge UK provides an opportunity for young racers to showcase their calibre with the support of Yamaha’s championshipwinning Superbike and Supersport teams.

The top R3 rider in the championship, based on final championship positions, will be invited to show their skill at the bLU cRU R3 SuperFinale. This will take place alongside a round of the FIM Superbike World Championship in either September or October 2023 and offers the best two riders from the event the opportunity to join the bLU cRU R3 European Cup grid on a full-time basis.
