Monster Energy Yamaha Motogp Are #Inittowinit in 2021 Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP are #InItToWinIt in 2021 February 16, 2021 – The Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team broadcast a virtual reality team presentation to officially open their 2021 campaign. The launch event’s theme #InItToWinIt echoes the mindset of a team spearheaded by two young and competitive riders, Maverick Viñales and Fabio Quartararo, ahead of the 2021 MotoGP World Championship kick-off in Qatar in March. With this year marking Yamaha’s sixtieth anniversary of its first ever Grand Prix endeavour, the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team is raring to start the 2021 World Championship action. To set the tone for a new season that’s full of endless possibilities and which they will be tackling with a new rider line- up, the team found an innovative way to open its doors to the fans and media. Making use of the latest technology, they gave a virtual reality presentation to show off their eager young riders Maverick Viñales and Fabio Quartararo, the 2021 Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP YZR-M1s, as well as the team’s close relationship with title sponsor Monster Energy Company. The team launch was led by renowned TV F1 presenter Federica Masolin, who is also an avid MotoGP fan. She invited Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.’s MotoGP Group Leader Takahiro Sumi, Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team Principal & Yamaha Motor Racing Managing Director Lin Jarvis, Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team Director Massimo Meregalli, Factory Yamaha riders Maverick Viñales and Fabio Quartararo, and Monster Energy’s Senior Vice President of Sports Marketing Mitch Covington to share their thoughts on the upcoming MotoGP action before the 2021 Yamaha YZR-M1s were unveiled. Viñales joined the Factory Yamaha crew in 2017 and immediately took two back-to-back GP victories. He went on to third place in the rider standings that year. Though the following season proved to be tough, the Spaniard kept his motivation high and won the race at Phillip Island. He finished 2018 in fourth place overall. In 2019, he scored two further Grand Prix victories, one in Assen and one in Sepang, and collected the overall bronze medal once more at the end of the season. 2020 was another challenging year. Though the Spaniard was in contention for the championship title until two races before the end, he ultimately finished in sixth place. Quartararo is a new entry to the Yamaha Factory squad, but he is already a household name amongst MotoGP fans thanks to his successful years as part of the Petronas Yamaha Sepang Racing Team. In his MotoGP debut year in 2019, he scored seven podiums in total (five second places and two third places), to end his first season on a YZR-M1 in fifth place, earning him the Rookie of the Year title. The young Frenchman started 2020 with a bang too, securing his first premier class win at Round 1 in Jerez, and he repeated his dominant performance the very next week at the same track. His third victory came in Catalunya, but he was unable to put his mark on the end of the season. He finished eighth in the overall 2020 standings. The colour scheme of the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP bike remains the same for 2021, with the team’s YZR-M1, the pit box, and the riders’ leathers sporting a ‘Monster Energy black’ to ‘Yamaha Factory Racing blue’ gradient. The perfect blend between Yamaha’s aesthetic and Monster Energy’s instantly recognisable claw branding is also represented in the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team logo and on the team uniforms. Yamaha has a long-term global alliance with the team’s title sponsor, Monster Energy Company, based on their mutual passion for racing. A multiple-year title sponsor agreement with the Yamaha Factory Racing MotoGP Team was signed in the summer of 2018 and came naturally, as Monster Energy Company sponsors multiple Yamaha teams (among them the Yamaha Factory Racing MotoGP team since 2013) and riders (including Viñales and Quartararo) in various racing classes. The team is also pleased to announce that throughout the 2021 racing season they will continue to feature the slogans of Thai Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., PT Yamaha Indonesia Motor Manufacturing, and Yamaha Motor Philippines, Inc., starting from the extended Qatar Official Test held from 6th-7th March and 10th-12th March 2021. Newly confirmed Yamaha Factory Racing MotoGP Test Team rider Cal Crutchlow will be joining Viñales and Quartararo at the Losail International Circuit. After a seven-year interval, the vastly experienced premier class rider will return to riding the YZR-M1 on 5th March 2021 in the Shakedown Test. With the upcoming season shaping up nicely, currently projected to count 19 GP rounds, Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP is delighted to confirm the continuation of its relationship with numerous sponsors and partners, including: ENEOS https://www.eneos.co.jp/index.html Yamalube http://yamalube.com Blue Core https://global.yamaha-motor.com/showroom/bluecore/en/sp Akrapovič http://www.akrapovic.com Yamaha Indonesia Motor Manufacturing http://www.yamaha-motor.co.id Yamaha Motor Philippines, Inc. https://www.yamaha-motor.com.ph Thai Yamaha Motor https://www.yamaha-motor.co.th Oakley http://www.oakley.com Alpinestars https://www.alpinestars.com Abarth http://www.abarth.com Gilles Tooling http://www.gillestooling.com Racing Boy RCB https://www.racingboy.com.my Furukawa Electrics https://www.furukawa.co.jp/en Marelli http://www.marelli.com D.I.D. https://www.did-daido.co.jp/en/ NGK Spark Plugs https://www.ngkntk.co.jp/english/ BMC Air Filters http://www.bmcairfilters.com 2D http://2d-datarecording.com Beta Tools http://beta-tools.it Yamaha Corp. (Yamaha Music) https://www.yamaha.com Michelin https://www.michelin.com/eng Pont Grup http://www.pontgrup.com For 2021, the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team have formed a new alliance with VR46 Racing Apparel. They will be the manufacturers of the official teamwear, all provided with a prominent VR46 Racing Apparel logo. Identical official teamwear products will be on sale to Yamaha fans throughout the global dealer network and at racetrack merchandise sales points. Furthermore, the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team continue to support Yamaha’s bLU cRU programme, encouraging a younger generation of on-road riders to follow their dream to become the next motorcycle racing star. Viñales and Quartararo are ambassadors of the programme and will serve as role models for all Yamaha’s young talents. Lastly, with an eye on continuous innovations and technical progression, the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team will be working closely together with Valentino Rossi, Franco Morbidelli, and Petronas Yamaha SRT throughout the 2021 season. Rossi will be riding a full factory YZR-M1 in Petronas Yamaha SRT colours, whilst Morbidelli will be riding the A-Spec YZR-M1. Both satellite riders will receive full support from YMC engineers in 2021, and their input will continue to contribute to the further development of the YZR-M1 throughout the season. Hiroshi Ito - Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.’s General Manager Motorsports Development Division & Yamaha Motor Racing Srl’s President “First of all, I want to say ‘Thank you for your patience during the extended winter break’ to all Yamaha MotoGP fans around the world. We, Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.’s Motorsports Development Division, are ready for the start of this new season. Last year was very tough for all MotoGP riders, teams, and staff members. During this time, our riders and teams got over the various difficulties together. Just like in 2020, this year the riders and teams will work together to put in Yamaha’s bid for the MotoGP World Title. We will use last years’ experience and add to that our creativity and ingenuity to win the championship as a strong team. We are confident and ready to do so. Please look forward to the success of this year’s Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team and Petronas Yamaha Sepang Racing Team, with our four wonderful riders.” Lin Jarvis - Yamaha Motor Racing Srl’s Managing Director & Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP’s Team Principal “This year we are entering our ninth year with Monster Energy Company as our sponsor and our third year with them as our title sponsor. We take great pride in the team’s long-term partnership with them as well as the strong global alliance between Yamaha and Monster Energy that forms an instant connection between the two brands. This bond cannot only be seen on track, through branding, but it’s also there behind the scenes and off track. The team wants to sincerely thank Monster Energy for their continuous support and commitment, as well as their deep rooted interest and passion for the sport. The same goes for our numerous other official team sponsors, partners, and suppliers. Without their dedication we would not be able to do what we love most – competing at the top-tier level of motorcycle racing We greatly miss having our sponsors, partners, as well as the media and the fans, attend events such as today’s press launch. However, we hope that the virtual reality experience made them feel ‘close to us’ again. The use of this state-of-the-art technology is also a reflection of our current mind-set: this season we are not leaving any stones unturned to get the job done. Last year, Yamaha was the most successful manufacturer in terms of GP wins, with seven victories in total, but we missed out on the Championship Title. Our goal for this year is to win the MotoGP World Championship. With the arrival of Fabio paired with Maverick we have two title contenders on board and so we know what we need to do – win races and maintain consistency all season long.

  • Quartararo Wins Doha Motogp
    Established 1961 Sport TUESDAY, APRIL 6, 2021 Quartararo wins Doha MotoGP Zarco makes French double; Rossi finishes at 16th DOHA: Fabio Quartararo of Yamaha won the Doha MotoGP on Sunday with French compatriot Johann Zarco of Ducati-Pramac finishing second. Spanish rookie Jorge Martin, the teammate of Zarco, was third after starting the race on pole position. It was the first time two French riders had been on the podium in the sport’s elite class since 1954 when Pierre Monneret won and Jacques Collot was third on home soil in Reims. Quartararo joked modestly that he “will enjoy the moment with a nice McDonald’s tonight” fol- lowing his win. “It is easy to say I’ve not won a lot of races — but wow!” he added. “I came from eighth, the pace and track were totally different from the fourth practice and warm-up. I always dreamed to win in Qatar, unfortunately I was not the first (this season).” Zarco’s second-place finish was enough to put him on top of the world championship after two rounds. He has 40 points with Quartararo in second, just four points behind. ‘Happy for both of them’ “I was pretty happy that Jorge (Martin) took the pace, after half a race he had the pace — but I was still able to stay behind him,” Zarco said. “He was so clean in the style. It was this situation in four laps to the end, Fabio came in the right place to overtake Jorge. I tried to overtake Fabio but I could not pass him.

Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.
