Valentino Rossi-Petronas, Uccio: "This is it"

Alessio Salucci, for everyone Uccio, Valentino Rossi’s right-hand man, at the microphones of Sky Sport confirms that the negotiation with Petronas is on the way: “Vale has the attitude of the one who wants everything but to stop, this makes us very happy. He’s a dragger, he’s someone who pulls the other guys along as well, he’s someone who always has a great desire, he amazes us all. Our intention is most likely to go on for 2021 as well.”

The Doctor will therefore run at least for another year with the satellite team. “When Vale moves it always creates movement, expectations, tensions. It is not an official team, but we will have a factory bike. They are structured very well, there is Yamaha to support us with whom we have a very good relationship and most likely we will have Franco as a teammate, it should be a good experience. Everything is not yet finalized but at the end of the month, we should be there,” added the Tavullia centaur’s best friend.
