With three-time champion Jake Gagne and veteran rider Bobby Fong, Yamaha is doubling down on its championship efforts to capture the 2025 MotoAmerica Superbike crown. A healthy Jake Gagne is hungry to reclaim his title. Gagne has 41 race wins, multiple track records, and three consecutive championships from 2021 to 2023. His experience and commitment to the Yamaha YZF-R1 make him a crucial asset for the team this season as he aims to increase his victory count. Gagne is a weapon.
“I’m really excited to get back racing in 2025! After a rough 2024, I’m lucky to work with such an awesome team. We’re going to work hard and get back in the fight.” – Jake Gagne, Attack Performance Progressive Yamaha Racing #32.
Bobby Fong joins Gagne on the Yamaha squad, eager to prove himself. He won the 2019 Supersport Championship and finished third overall last year, with eight podiums and two wins. His double victory at Brainerd International Raceway in 2024 confirmed his chops as a championship contender. His move to the Yamaha 2025 MotoAmerica Superbike Team brings added pressure, but Fong has never backed away from hard work.
“It’s a dream come true to join the Attack Yamaha team. I’ve been waiting for an opportunity like this my whole life, to have a factory ride in Superbike, so I’m really looking forward to the season and to do a good job for Yamaha. We’re putting in the work, on and off the bike, and I’m just excited to get going next year with these R1s.” – Bobby Fong, Attack Performance Progressive Yamaha Racing #50.
Attack Performance and Progressive Insurance continue to support Yamaha into the 2025 season. Since 2020, this partnership has led to four championship titles and 63 victories in the superbike class.
Jake Gagne and Bobby Fong will debut the Attack Performance Progressive Yamaha Racing YZF-R1 at the MotorAmerica Superbike 2025 season opener, April 4 through 6, at Barber Motorsports Park.
