The Movistar Yamaha MotoGP Team is delighted to announce a two-year collaboration with Abarth in the MotoGP World Championship.
The partnership will see Abarth join Movistar Yamaha as an Official Sponsor and Official Car Supplier for the 2015 and 2016 race seasons.
The Abarth Scorpion logo will be visible on all team equipment as well as on the nose of the YZR-M1 cowlings of both Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi.
As part of the agreement between Abarth and Movistar Yamaha, Abarth will supply cars from the FCA Group at race and test events around the world.
The Abarth Scorpion logo is no stranger to Yamaha having been previously placed on the YZR-M1 machines of Valentino Rossi and Colin Edwards at the 2007 Australian Grand Prix. Abarth has a long history and credible pedigree in racing with Carlo Abarth achieving sporting success on two wheels as far back as 1928.
Lin Jarvis
Managing Director, Yamaha Motor Racing
“I’m really very happy to see the Scorpion logo back on our YZR-M1. It is always a pleasure to welcome back old friends to the team so we are delighted that Abarth joins us for this new adventure. We have been together with the Fiat Group, now FCA Group, since 2007 so we have had a long and successful partnership that continues to grow in strength. We are confident that the 2015 and 2016 seasons will make exciting new chapters in our story together. The very sporting nature of the Abarth brand couldn't be a better match for the team, representing the same values we hold true.”
Marco Magnanini
Head of Abarth Brand, EMEA region
“The partnership between Abarth and Yamaha results from a number of shared values. Innovation, passion for performances and love for racing: this is where the joint journey between two companies that wrote the history of two- and four-wheels racing takes off from."
