Samuxx, has sent us a couple of very interesting renderings that envision how the 2013 Yamaha YZR-M1 ridden by prodigal son Valentino Rossi could look like next year, in light of the new recently announced sponsorship agreement with Monster Energy Company.
It goes without saying that what we are looking at here are a couple of shots in the dark, two wild guesses from the very talented Signor Samuxx, but nonetheless we cannot help but appreciate both graphic concepts, which are very professional and well made.
The first one adopts a mainly black-and-white color scheme, which is somewhat reminiscent of the all-black livery of the Yamaha Tech3 satellite team.
Since the latter is expected to retain the same graphics, we would expect the new M1 of the Factory team to use more ‘blue’ (though we are guessing as well).
As for the second one, it is a very Valentino-oriented rendition that the Italian rider could use – hypothetically – on some special occasion, such as his home GP at the Mugello track.
Sure thing we won’t see team mate and reigning World Champion Jorge Lorenzo riding anything like that.
We will have to wait quite some time to see how the actual 2013 Factory Yamaha M1 will look like, but that’s not the case for its main rivals: the new livery of the Ducati Team should be unveiled tomorrow at the 2013 Wrooom – the traditional happening that takes place at the begining of every year and brings together the Ducati MotoGP and Ferrari Formula 1 teams as well as journalists from around the world in the popular winter resort of Madonna di Campiglio, northern Italy – while the new Honda RC213V will be introduced to the world the next 24th of January in Madrid.
