Two Ducati's Satellite Teams Looking For Partnership With Yamaha, Could It Be Marc VDS also...??



Two of Ducati's satellite MotoGP teams, Angel Nieto and Avintia, have expressed interest in taking over Yamaha's supply of customer bikes for the 2019 season. On Thursday, it was announced that the 18-year relationship between Yamaha and its sole satellite team, Tech 3, will be coming to an end after the 2018 campaign. It leaves Yamaha needing to find an alternative partner to ensure it maintains a four-bike presence on the 2019 grid, while opening up an opportunity for other satellite teams to bid for the opportunity to lease a pair of year-old M1s from the Iwata factory.

As written in Motorsport, both Nieto (formerly Aspar) and Avintia, which currently run a 2017 and a '16-spec Ducati each, have indicated that they would be interested in taking over Tech 3's supply of Yamahas. Marc VDS could also enter the bidding, having made it clear in the past that it is unhappy with the state of its relationship with Honda following Jack Miller's defection to the Ducati camp last year. However, a spokesperson from the Belgian team told that "what we want is to link ourselves to a manufacturer which offers us a long-term project."

Who is agree with #Mbak_Yu that Marc VDS better join the list...? What the matter of long term relationship if you "kill" your rider's talent on that Honda's leveled bikes (sorry to say)...?? In #Mbak_Yu opinion, it will "kill" Morbi's talent as what it did to Jack and Tito. Sorry, I wish I was wrong. :)
