With Colin Edwards set to undergo surgery next week and unable to take part in the final MotoGP race of the season at Valencia, Yamaha Tech3 has decided to replace him with Josh Hayes.
Hayes was already set to be at Valencia to test theYamaha M1 during the official post season test, a gift by Yamaha USA after his winning the 2011 AMA Superbike Championship, but now he’ll get his debut ride in the actual race weekend.
