Chuck Graves (Graves Motorsports Team Owner) says: "Josh has proven to be a tremendous asset to the team and his success is proven in the current point standings."
Kevin Foley (Yamaha Media Relations) says: "We have found that Josh's off track professionalism and enthusiasm have drawn considerable attention to Yamaha and his assault on the title has been very exciting for fans."
Josh Hayes says: "I'm so excited to have this opportunity with Graves Yamaha for the next two seasons. My crew and the entire team have enjoyed great success this year and it is fantastic to attend this last event with my plans for the future solidly in place. I am looking forward to the final round at Barber and plan to do my best to bring them home the Championship they deserve."
