Valentino Rossi, negotiations underway: the announcement
WRT team boss Vincent Vosse: “We are negotiating the renewal with Valentino Rossi, I don’t see why we should change.”
Valentino Rossi promoted after his first year in the WRT team: the boss of the Belgian team, Vincent Vosse, after the end of the GTWC championship spoke about the future of the rider from Tavullia, who according to rumors has been confirmed for next season. “We are negotiating with Valentino Rossi, at the moment there is nothing certain, but I don’t see why we should change,” the words taken from Motorsport.
The Doctor last week tested in Barcelona the BMW M4, the team’s new car after Audi’s farewell: “On Monday we tested our M4s in Barcelona and there were no problems, managing to gather a lot of information. Now we will go to Valencia to continue testing, it will be a very busy winter as programs. For next year I don’t think there will be any big surprises, we will choose what to do with BMW in GTWC Sprint and Endurance, and with how many cars.”
On the possible commitment to the Gulf 12 Hours, a competition Valentino would like to run: “We won’t go with Audi to the Indianapolis 8h of the Intercontinental GT Challenge this weekend, we don’t know yet if there will be a chance to go to the Gulf 12h in December. The schedules are to be determined.”
