American-based Attack Performance will return to MotoGP for all three United States races this year.
AMA Superbike runner-up Blake Young will ride the team's Kawasaki-powered APR chassis at the inaugural Austin MotoGP event plus the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and Indianapolis Motor Speedway rounds. Attack entered the latter two events last season with Steve Rapp.
The team failed to qualify at Laguna Seca but finished 14th at Indianapolis.
