Doyle and Lloyds spearhead Giaccmoto Twins Cup assault

Giaccmoto Racing will field a two-rider team in the 2024 MotoAmerica Twins Cup Championship, with series regular Dominic Doyle joined by newcomer Sonya Lloyd. Both riders will compete with Giaccmoto Racing-prepared Yamaha YZF-R7 motorcycles with full support from Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A.

This will be Doyle’s second year working with team owner Chuck Giacchetto and his third year racing a Yamaha R7 in the Twins Cup Championship. The South African-born rider finished fourth in the final standings last year achieving five podiums in a season highlighted by a win in race one at Ridge Motorsports Park. Doyle began his MotoAmerica road racing career in 2017 and has previously competed in both the Junior Cup and Supersport Championships.

Lloyd steps up to the Twins Cup Championship after a successful year in the Royal Enfield Build Train Race(BTR) program. The Georgian, who will graduate from the University of Georgia with a degree in Bioengineering this May, finished as runner-up in the BTR final standings after reaching the podium in all but one of the seven races on the season. She becomes the first full-time female to compete in the MotoAmerica Twins Cup series.
