Between Maverick Viñales and Yamaha, the end of the season may be long. We saw this from the start of the school year in Styria with the Spaniard's attitude towards his box neighbor Fabio Quartararo which did not resemble that of a model teammate. This back-to-school race did not help the already degraded relations with the second start synonymous with disaster for the Spaniard who once again implied a conspiracy theory, clearly castigating the executives of a team that he will prematurely leave at the end of this year, rather than in 2022. But this is no longer the only defection…
There is family KTM, there is the clan Ducati, but there is also the lineage Casa Particular in Viñales in the motorcycle speed paddock. So, when a Maverick is cold with Yamaha , it's everything that bears his name that takes a dislike to Iwata's brand. We learn in fact that the Vinales Racing Team, engaged in the competition for motorcycles derived from the series, will be looking for a new manufacturer next year after only one year of collaboration with the tuning fork coat of arms.
At the start of 2021, the team led by Angel Vinales made his WorldSSP300 debut with Yamaha, using the YZF-R3. After just four rounds, the Viñales Racing Team and Yamaha announce the end of their story.
The Viñales cut ties with Yamaha
In a Facebook post, the team said: “ it's official: the Viñales Racing Team will not continue with Yamaha. The rookie team in the WorldSSP300 category unilaterally decided to break the agreement with Yamaha Racing. There is currently no confirmation for any other factory, so updates will be reported in the coming weeks ».
Break up unilaterally with Yamaha has therefore become a watchword among Casa Particular in Viñales. We must now hope that this escalation will not end on the track in MotoGP with an unfortunate episode between the Spaniard and fabio quartararo, championship leader and Yamaha's only hope of winning the title this season.
