There is a lot of talk about a possible switch from Ducati to Yamaha for the VR46 Pertamina team. It should not happen and there are good reasons. Pertamina is ready to renew for two more years by putting a monstrous sum on the table.
14 million to also sponsor the Academy but there are conditions. Here are all the details of the renewal and all the reasons for the NO to Yamaha along with other incredible news you will find in the video.
Many of you know that one of the wide-ranging market topics in Motogp is a possible switch of the VR46 team, Pertamina to Yamaha.
This has been talked about for some time, but it never happens.
Now it seems that pressure from DORNA for Yamaha to have a team, too, is increasing.
For what I think, VR46 is not going to switch to Yamaha.
then I may be wrong but I am about to explain why Valentino's team, despite the fact that vale is a Yamaha ambassador, will stay with Ducati.
Whether it happens or not, apart from my impressions I am about to give you great news.
Very good news that rewards the great sporting and marketing work of the VR46 team that I will never tire of congratulating.
Brace yourselves.
You have understood that I think that despite what has been said for so long, which is that valentino 's Motogp team will switch to Yamaha, for me it will not happen.
A lot of things in the paddock are said because they seem the most normal, the most logical, but other logics under which these things don't happen escape us. Even Tanal seemed logical because it was fascinating. It wasn't true, though.
Here I do not explain, since Yamaha will not have the VR46 team, who they will give the other two bikes to. That's something I will address later.
I explain why VR46, who is working very well, will stay with ducati.
Although ducati has made it clear that it will be difficult to keep 8 bikes.
I will tell you in a simple way: PERTAMINA DOES NOT AGREE.
Pertamina, who is a state-owned oil company, Pertamina who came to italy with over 100 people at the team presentation, Pertamina who kicked out 18 million for 3 years, wants to be in the front, and so the Yamaha are not okay.
Maybe in a few years it will happen, when the regulations change, but for now no.
In my opinion. Maybe it's one of those pieces that will age poorly, however, I'll also tell you what Pertamina is doing vis-à-vis VR46, to make it clear concretely what she likes and what she doesn't like.
There are rumors, they should be confirmed any day now, about a contract extension with VR46Motogp for another 2 years.
And that's big stuff. but it's not over. The extension provides not 6 million annually, as it is currently, but 7.
So Pertamina adds to the current 18 million, another 14 million and also wants to sponsor the Academy.
And it goes up to 32.
Do you know of any other sponsors at this level even from official teams?
Does it seem to you that this extension at this time is not a message?
Does it seem to you that those who pay 32 million want to finish last and don't want to have a say in what bikes are used?
It is a confirmation of sponsorship, it is a confirmation of trust and it is a confirmation of the current situation.
In fact it is an incentive to do better. Do you say that Diggia and Bezzecchi on Yamaha could do better?
Given for correct that Diggia has already renewed as I said in another video, do you say that in his contract there is no mention of the bike he will ride?
Let's say Bez leaves, for whatever reason, do you think any rider could do better on Yamaha than the current bezzecchi is doing on ducati?
I could also just give you the news of Pertamina's two-year extension at 14 million and I would be fine but I try to reason with you.
E per quanto riguarda valentino, che è ambassador Yamaha? Qualcosa lo ha fermato fino ad ora dal correre con Ducati, dal mandare suo fratello in Honda, dal prendere un pilota non VR46 come Diggia E NON MORBIDELLI che ha parcheggiato da altri, oppure aver tentato di prendere Aldeguer? Dal correre in auto con BMW?
No. E ve lo dico io perché. Per Vale, Uccio e tutto il management, l’unico interessa è essere i più forti possibile e questo si può solo con Ducati. Con tutti i soldi che hanno da spendere, saranno in prima fila per prendere le moto migliori da Ducati, anche forse quelle ufficiali, se qualche interlocutore ufficiale dovesse saltare. VR46 non solo potrebbe non andare in Yamaha ma potrebbe anche essere la nuova Pramac. E questo l’ho già detto in un altro articolo molto tempo fa.
For what conditions could it go instead? It would have to be forced by Dorna, but someone would have to not only give him the bikes for free but make CERTAIN reasons clear to Pertamina. 14 million reasons.
Then, clearly, I may be wrong.
