Yamaha Financial Services has extended its backing of the opening round of the Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK) season by opting to continue as title sponsor of the Australian round at Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit for the 2017 race on February 24-26.
The specialist motorcycle finance and insurance company served as title sponsor of this year’s event and the extended contract ensures it will retain its title of the Yamaha Finance Round in 2017.
Brad Ryan, managing director of Yamaha Financial Services Australia, said: “As our business expands so does our support of grassroots motorcycling. The terrific feedback we received from our dealer partners, the public and our loyal customers left us in no doubt that we should sponsor WorldSBK again if the opportunity arose.”
