Naughty Maverick Viñales Suspended
Yamaha have just released a statement announcing their factory rider Maverick Viñales has been suspended and won?t be racing at the next round of the 2021 MotoGP Championship. Why" Because he?s been a very naughty boy. The news comes a month or so after the Monster Energy Yamaha rider requested his factory contract be terminated a year early. That would suggest to me he?s far from a happy bunny. Rumour has it that Aprilia are after him, but they might think twice after reading about his latest exploits.
Yamaha?s press release reads as follows?
Yamaha regrets to announce that Maverick Viñales? entry to this weekend?s Austrian MotoGP event has been withdrawn by the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team. The absence follows the suspension of the rider by Yamaha due to the unexplained irregular operation of the motorcycle by the rider during last weekend?s Styria MotoGP race. Yamaha?s decision follows an in-depth analysis of telemetry and data over the last days. Yamaha?s conclusion is that the rider?s actions could have potentially caused significant damage to the engine of his YZR-M1 bike which could have caused serious risks to the rider himself and possibly posed a danger to all other riders in the MotoGP race. The rider will not be replaced at the Austrian GP
Decisions regarding the future races will be taken after a more detailed analysis of the situation and further discussions between Yamaha and the rider.
