Monster to back Tech3 Yamaha

The Monster Energy drinks company has signed a deal to sponsor the Tech3 Yamaha team of Herve Poncharal for the next two seasons.

The former Kawasaki backer was left in the lurch after the withdrawl of the green team in December, but will continue its involvement in MotoGP with the satelite Yamaha team.

For Poncheral's privateer team it is a welcome boost following recent years of limited budget, but podiums for Colin Edwards last season and a strong test so far for him in Qatar stand the paddock's most experienced team in good stead.
