The information is as important as it is brief: Valentino Rossi would have already found an agreement to renew for another year his contract with Yamaha, which expires at the end of 2018.
Officially, questioned on the subject, the Italian driver has provided this weekend his usual answer: he will be there in 2019 if his first results 2018 are at the height of his expectations.
But Carlo Pernat, always very knowledgeable in the Italian MotoGP and former manager of the Doctor, told us what would be great news for the MotoGP world …
Carlo Pernat: “I know something about Valentino’s future. From the information I have, he has already signed a contract for 2019 with Yamaha. The Dorna put a lot of pressure because Valentino is essential for the MotoGP. Honestly, even though I did not see the contract personally, I’m sure of what I’m saying. So you can say it, even if he will probably say the opposite if you ask him the question. He will answer that he does not know yet. He signed just for 2019. ”
