After the Yamaha press release follows the Monster Tech 3 Yamaha team press release, announcing that Pol Espargaro and Bradley Smith will be teammates for 2014:

Smith and Espargaro form young and talented Monster Yamaha Tech 3 line-up for 2014

The Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team is delighted to confirm that Bradley Smith and Pol Espargaro will form a young and exciting line-up for the French-based squad in the 2014 MotoGP World Championship.

British rider Smith has shown tremendous pace and promise in his rookie MotoGP campaign in 2013 and at the halfway stage of the season is only 32-points outside of the top six in the overall rankings.

Smith has adapted quickly to Yamaha’s prototype YZR-M1 machine and he has scored six top 10 finishes in nine races so far, including impressive rides into the top six in Catalunya and Sachsenring.

The 22-year-old has demonstrated great professionalism and willingness to learn in the initial stage of his MotoGP career and the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team is looking forward to helping Smith progress and follow in the footsteps of compatriot Cal Crutchlow, who has established himself as a consistent podium challenger under the guidance of Herve Poncharal’s squad.
