Recently, a message from the Motogp Yamaha factory team shows that in the 2021 season Yamaha factory team may no longer contract with Rossi, of course, if Rossi wants to continue to run down, they will provide a complete plant for Rossi car team and technical support. That leave Yamaha if he does not, he will put a satellite PETRONAS team shirt in 2021 season. Of course, his name into the MotoGP team VR46 rebrand is not impossible.
simply means that, in the factory team level, 46 Rossi was laid off.
Rossi said that he needed more time to think in the future decide now just ready for 2020 season.
Like most people, Motogp his career experienced ups and downs. However, with most riders difference is that no matter what happens, Rossi always been one of the biggest surprise in this game. No one would have thought that one day, there will be no shadow of Rossi on the starting line.
But the fact is that no choice Yamaha. Rossi legend in motorsport not any more, not his charm, MotoGP can not reach the current level of popularity, but will not let this game in the most flourishing period.
At the same time, he is almost Yamaha motorcycle sales in the play, even Wang Yibo Rossi wore a leather flowers.
However, Rossi since 2017 Dutch Grand Prix victory never before, and last year he was world champion in 2009, 11 years ago.
In contrast to 2019 Motogp, No. 20 Yamaha satellite team riders boast Tala Luo winning seven trophies, but also remain in the rest of the vast majority of the game stable level and Yamaha factory team rider No. 12 Vinales side by side.
The most critical is that the two men are a threat to the Honda factory team’s No. 93 Marquis. On the other side of Rossi on the podium only twice, total points behind also boast Tala Luo, was seventh.
Rossi in the pastRecession years of racing due in part may be due to Yamaha offers not competitive, but even so, he was fighting for the championship since losing in 2015, Rossi now more than ever is more like all hope and the stakes are pinned on the dice tables like a helpless, that he will not be accused of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Lorenzo together to plan the destruction of his world champion sequelae and shadows, presumably will stimulate discussion in the next few years.
in any of the previous contract period, if he wants it, Rossi never worried about his place in the factory team . So for Yamaha, selected drivers are not widespread, the first Marquis is not a realistic option.
at Yamaha in 2017 Viñales in the bag, but due to lack of competitiveness of the car plus driver and do not adapt to the new car, so this optimistic situation was blocked, so was very happy to be Yamaha to keep Rossi, marketing benefits obtained from him, but if he really win a world title, as it is the same as in a lottery.
But Rossi has been 41 years old this year, he had never promised to the current contract be extended for two years. If signed a year, it will lead to other Yamaha factory team contract period is not synchronized. Rossi dragged on, Yamaha did not have time to wait any longer.
In fact, the contract has already started the war several years ago, which means that most contract negotiations were started in the winter, decided to have a depot which is usually a driver its previous season’s results, rather than current performance. After the 2019 season, Viñales and boast Tala Luo is in addition to Marquis, the field’s most sought-after candidate, they will very likely received a tempting offer rival depot.
For example, Ducati had contacted Viñales, but he refused. The Ducati can not quell widespread media attention, but also admitted that they really “wired” before. On the Ducati 2020 new conference, CEO Claudio Domenicali said that the focus of Italian Ducati rider is not taken into account.
In addition, Suzuki also has a great interest in the Vinales and boast Tala Luo.
Regardless of the truth, the fact is that Yamaha must act to ensure its own challenging Honda’s strength, compared to Rossi, Viñales and boast Tala Luo is clearly more opportunities.
Rossi had earlier said that once the two exits, 4-wheel racing will develop, he can be their own career at least a further period of ten years, this is his passion, he has won gold at the Monza Rally, Le Mans 24 Hour race is his yearning to participate in the project, perhaps the best time next year.
