SBK: Surprise at Jerez: Michael Rinaldi debuts on a Yamaha R9

The long-awaited moment has finally arrived. Today, on the Jerez track, Michael Ruben Rinaldi did his first laps on the Yamaha R9. So, on the day after Epiphany, here is the debut of the rider from Romagna on the latest evolution of the Japanese bike, which will be racing this year in the Supersport World Championship.

For Rinaldi it will be an entirely new challenge after years in World SBK riding a Ducati. In some ways it is therefore strange to see him in blue colors after the red used for many seasons and the orange of the last one.

The fact remains that the number 21 has begun a new chapter in his racing career in GMT94 colors. Then there was also a surprise in the box of the team headed by Guyot, represented by Andrew Pitt.

Apparently, Rea's former crew chief in Yamaha, could follow Michael from this year in Supersport.
