"2021 is a new challenge for me. I'm at Yamaha, but with a new team ”, explained the Doctor during the official presentation of the team, in which he will have his compatriot and friend as a partner Franco Morbidelli.
Despite the fact that Vale no longer has the status of “official”, the Petronas SRT, which is a Yamaha satellite, showed great potential in 2020 thanks to the French Fabio Quartararo, who just replaced Tavullia in the Japanese manufacturer's team.
“They showed that they are capable of doing great things and I want that in 2021. It is a new experience. The colors change and I like them. We are ready"added the multiple champion.
