Pending review of the cars with drivers on the track Annesi, we can not dwell on the "motomercato. Several have been with the negotiation of the driver championship. Some have changed seat, see Rossi and Stoner , while others ( Marco Melandri at all ) have left the championships Dorna to turn to other shores. Trading in hand, attention should be also other movements that are bringing about in the stables. Just think of the Yamaha team , which these days is struggling to find a new main sponsor, given that Fiat has decided to cut the bridges.
In all probability the place left by the giant Italian will be the prerogative of AirAsia , which will play the livery of the two Yamaha YZR M1 officers Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies in 2011. The news is obviously unofficial, even if the rumors are always more applicants.
One, however, is quite conclusive. From the International Registry of tomorrow is in fact someone who recently bought the words " airasiayamahateam.com . Hence it is clear therefore that is certainly some truth to exist.
The low-cost airline in question, which is based in Malaysia, is not new to this type of sponsorship, as was the terminus during the Grand Prix at Silverstone as well as on the hulls of two Aprilia in the 125cc (Race World Wide, Khairuddin Fagerhaug and drivers)
Obviously nothing to do with a potential deal with Yamaha, which would give AirAsia visibility in prime position to rise considerably turnover.

The Yamaha is without a sponsor for the 2011 MotoGP , despite the world championship title, the constructors and the team for ii, caught a total success for the third consecutive year, but does not receive the much desired and needed sponsors going to replace the Fiat . The preliminary contacts with Telefonica , then with Petronas and Air Asia did not produce a new brand on the hull of Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies that risks to present the first test in February of Sepang with black or blue bike company. Lack of sponsors for the transfer of Valentino Rossi to Ducati ?
While Lorenzo realizes the usual calendar 2011 , the Yamaha is likely to arrive to test in Sepang next February with a black motorcycle without a sponsor.
If the Repsol had to make a greater effort to support the economic costs of the third movement of Casey Stoner and if Ducati line up to put their mark on Red , the M1 lives in a strange condition.
Although the three titles obtained, the abandonment of the main sponsor of Fiat , the transfer must for Rossi to Ducati did the rest.
After all the last thing that Lorenzo and Rossi have done together, it's a t-shirt for charity .
At the Yamaha lacks a proper and structured department dedicated to finding sponsors for the races.
