Well, that should cover pre-season/testing.


Hopefully not all of 2021...

Engines are locked down for 2021 already. They need HP, acceleration, and top speed. Deal is done already.
Maybe the laptop jockeys can code out the problems. But the same major issue remains, Yamaha have not adapted to the Michelins. Suzuki sure did.

Remember the days Michelin would ship bespoke tyres to Yamaha during a race weekend, before it was a single tyre supplier championship.

You blame 'em?

Yamaha has pulled out all the stops to achieve mediocrity. Hard to believe sponsors don't want a piece of the flat tuning fork.

Don't blame them at all, but that's still big news. Wonder if Movistar will rejoin Yamaha for 2021.

Hopefully it’s a wake up call for Yamaha.

Next year is already a write-off for Yamaha....very little they can do. But I fully expect them to wait until the second round of testing in 2022 to realize they.....once again.....went all the wrong directions.

Luca Marini will be in the MotoGP class in 2021 aboard a Ducati. Interesting signing today. The garage will be split with each bike running its own colors and sponsors.

I think it's the sponsorship signings that they are referring to.
