Valentino Rossi is working hard to help Yamaha get out of its current technical slump. At 39 years old, he would undoubtedly have preferred another situation in which to live his next two years which will take him to the age of 41 with the tuning fork brand. But the Doctor will be there, alongside Iwata's troops, to give them the energy that we would expect from a young beginner. But after ? Vale prepares to be chef himself. With some Yamaha and a duo of pilots… And not just any pilots!
Being a team boss means above all being pragmatic. And Valentino Rossi also has this quality if we judge by comments relayed by Tutomotoriweb : " I think when I retire I could build a MotoGP team with Yamaha. At the moment I'm a pilot, and I can't think about the subject ».

We will add that if the opportunity presented itself, Valentino Rossi would have had the opportunity to recover a duo whose relations would have already been created after two years spent under the same Honda awning…
