ā€œIā€™m really happy to be signing with Rob Hooper Yamaha for the 2021 Season. They are a great group of people, and I am very grateful for the opportunity,” said Hall.

“I love the bike and feel at home on it straight away so Iā€™m excited to get the season started and see what I can achieve.”

Taylor Hammal, who has been with RHR for two years, has left the team for pastures new.

I am sad to see Taylor go of course,ā€ said Hooper, ā€œbut he has been offered a great opportunity to showcase his talents on the world stage, and we are fully supportive of him and his family who have been a pleasure to work with over the last couple of years.

“We wish Taylor all of the best for the future, and we look forward to following his progress.

ā€œWe are very excited that Lewis has joined the team, we have a reputation of nurturing young British talent with our hands-on approach, and we feel we can help take Lewisā€™s career to the next level.

“Lewis has already been working amazingly hard, and we have been impressed by his dedication to the sport. I would like to say a big thank you to Adam Kelly and Harry Mackenzie from Yamaha for their support and helping us bring Lewis to the team.ā€
