Noile culori Movistar Yamaha

Asa cum s-a anunțat, astăzi Yamaha a prezentat echipa MotoGP pentru sezonul 2014. De fapt, asta este o re-prezentare pentru că lansarea oficială a avut loc la Sepang. Între timp Yamaha a semnat un contract de sponsorizare cu MoviStar (ca sponsor principal), echipa a devenit MoviStar Yamaha și ca atare s-a schimbat și grafica motocicletelor pentru a îngloba însemnele sponsorului principal. 

Mai sunt 2 zile și începe... prima cursă a anului - Grand Prix-ul Qatar-ului.

"In February, we held a press conference in Malaysia to discuss Yamaha’s close relationship with motor sports. Indeed, racing is in Yamaha's DNA. Racing is even embodied in our brand message, “Revs your Heart”. Like the thrill people feel when they hear engine revs rise, Yamaha strives to inspire people with exciting moments and great experiences based on unique Yamaha initiatives spanning many racing forums. One of our most important missions is to succeed in MotoGP, the pinnacle of motorcycle racing. We are now preparing for this year’s campaign, when we hope to capture the MotoGP championship. I am very pleased to announce that the Yamaha Factory MotoGP Team has entered a five-year partnership with Movistar, the Spanish mobile phone operator owned by Telefonica España. From this year, they will race as the “Movistar Yamaha MotoGP” team. We are delighted to make this announcement, because we look forward to building a strong partnership with Movistar in MotoGP. Partnering with Movistar is a major step towards achieving our goals. With superstars Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi on board, we expect to enjoy many fine performances by Movistar Yamaha MotoGP, ultimately leading to the championship. With the racing season upon us, please look forward to big things from Yamaha!"
