    Two one-week workshops are planned in 2016. The talented youngsters will have the chance to train alongside the full time VR46 Riders Academy riders in the gym, at the MotoRanch and at the Misano circuit, riding dedicated YZF-R3 and YZ250F machines.
    All riders will have the full access to the facilities of the Academy and Valentino Rossi will participate and instruct the selected candidates along with the full-time Academy staff.

    i believe that pretty much finalises Rossi in Yamaha for the future. He will either retire at the end of the year or continue with Yamaha. No chance of him switching brands now.

    VR46 supplies merchandise for Yamaha Racing and now Yamaha Racing gives support to VR46 riders academy. Good for both the parties involved!

    So if Rossi continues at Yamaha, will Lorenzo think of jumping ship? To Ducati maybe, especially if the Ducati shows promise this year. And will Yamaha be looking to poach Maverick?

    Quite the season we are in for at MotoGP. Look forward to all madness

      R3 should be a good machine for young riders to train on .. specially when VR46 himself takes care of that!
      A bike on the road is worth two in the shed.
