A controversy that would go well without Lynn Jarvis who must already maintain the morale and serenity of his troops affected by a historic series of failures.
In Austria, Vinales ignored his boss's recommendations not to respond on this hot topic. The teammate of Valentino Rossi commented on Autosportt: “ The decision to leave Ramon Forcada is not only mine, but that of the entire Yamaha team. Now it's fixed and I think it's making more noise than it deserves.e ”.
The former chief engineer of Jorge Lorenzo would therefore have been ostracized by the entire official Yamaha team. The Spaniard continues: “ Now it is very important to focus on your work. There are still many races to go and we have to respond. We have to keep working and stay focused. I'm very motivated for this weekend ».
« Yamaha and I have the same goal: to be the first. We are preparing the bike to compete for podiums. This is the first objective, and from there we can think of victory. The way we worked at Assen and Sachsenring was perfect.” Brno not being mentioned, we must believe that something happened in Moravia.
