Valentino Rossi leaves Ducati, heads house to Yamaha

Immediately after an undeniably unsuccessful two- year romantic relationship with Ducati, motorbike superstar Valentino Rossi has made a decision to take his skills back to Yamaha, the team he left at the finish of the 2010 season for what he hoped would be greener pastures.

The deal signed by Rossi will see him wearing Yamaha blue for two many years the 2013 and 2014 seasons and teaming up once again with Jorge Lorenzo, the 25- year -old Spanish rider who won the World Championship in 2010 and is at this time performing the very same for 2012. Although Lorenzo is undoubtedly an incredibly gifted rider, Rossi is a fan and sponsor favourite and is confident to support Yamaha deliver in some significantly – required sponsorship bucks.

As to who will be filling Rossi’s vacated saddle at Ducati, rumor has it that the Italian team is most interested in Italian rider Andrea Dovizioso. If that is the case, he will be paired up with American Nicky Hayden, who has been with Ducati since 2009. Dueling press releases, one particular from Ducati and the other from Yamaha, can be located beneath. Suffice it to say, the 2013 MotoGP season even with out Casey Stoner is shaping up to be instead interesting.
