Overview
- Guevara rode a Yamaha YZR-M1 at Circuit Ricardo Tormo on Wednesday, November 19, in a private factory test.
- He completed two runs of five laps each, and no lap times were released by the team.
- The chance came from a pledge made at Sepang that he would get an M1 run if he delivered the team’s first Moto2 victory, which he did in the Valencia finale.
- Guevara praised the bike’s power, acceleration and smooth cornering feel, and he thanked Yamaha and Jack Miller for the opportunity.
- His debut adds to a recent trend of Moto2 riders trying MotoGP machinery, following outings for Manuel Gonzalez, Diogo Moreira and, a day earlier, Celestino Vietti.
