Tohru Ukawa to join Alex Barros at Camel Honda in Motegi After the confirmation that Troy Bayliss will not be able to compete at Motegi after fracturing his wrist whilst motocross training in his native Australia, the Camel Honda team have decided to recruit Honda test rider Tohru Ukawa as team-mate to Brazilian rider Alex Barros for the event. There will therefore be two yellow RC211V machines on track at the Grand Prix of Japan, whilst the whole team remain hopeful that Troy Bayliss can make a quick recovery and be back in action as soon as possible. It is a return to the yellow colours of Camel for Tohru Ukawa, with the experienced Japanese rider having raced for the team during the 2003 season alongside Max Biaggi.
