In addition, the German Design Award marks the fourth international design award received by the YZF-R1 (2015 overseas model), following on from the Good Design Award 2015, iF Design Award 2016, and the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2016.
The title of 'winner' is an award of excellence bestowed only on entries chosen by the jury from within each category.
The new flagship YZF-R1 supersport model was developed to enable riders to experience the technical concepts of a YZR-M1 MotoGP machine, and comes equipped with the potential for a circuit-level top speed. The design, in addition to projecting the image of the YZR-M1, is also a new innovation of the 'Speed Racer'"concept, and represents a new strand of R-DNA.
