What is the YXZ1000R Cup
The YXZ1000R Cup is a mono-brand racing community inside multiple championships around Europe.
The Cup takes place in nine countries: Spain, Portugal, Germany, France, Italy, Great Britain, Sweden, Finland and Israel, with each National Cup featuring a minimum of three races.
Competitors can enter the Stock category for unmodified vehicles. Both pilot and co-pilot must be over 18 years of age with a national federation license to enter.
The top-scoring racers in the Stock category from each National Cup qualify and are entitled to a free entry for a unique SuperFinale event held during the Baja Portalegre 500 in Portugal, running from 28-30 October 2021.
The winners of the stock category at the SuperFinale will receive free entry to a major rally in 2022, plus official Yamaha parts and accessories for the YXZ1000R to the value of €3000.
The 2021 Cup will also field Wildcard entries in the SuperFinale. The top finishing YXZ1000R in the Stock category, in both Rally Andalucia and Baja Aragon will automatically qualify for the SuperFinale, joining the qualifiers from the National Cups.
A new program running parallel to the official YXZ1000R European Cup will be the YXZ1000R Challenge, an overall ranking for racers competing outside of the Cup regardless of their racing preparation type. The YXZ1000R Challenge winners at the SuperFinale will receive free entry to a national rally.
