MotoGP: ‘I would not go back’ - Maverick Vinales rules out returning to Yamaha

After splitting from Yamaha a🔴fter his relationship with the Japanese manufacturer turned sour midway through the 2021 MotoGP season, Vinales is convinced that his future lies with Aprilia.
Feeling like he wasn’t always backed and listened to by Yamaha, Vinales’ time with Aprilia has certa𓆉inly felt like a different story for the Spaniard.

Despite results not quite being at the level that was expected, Vinales was given a two-year deal by Aprilia until the end of 2024 before the ex-Suzuki rider, who is a nine-time MotoGP race winner, started to show the same type of potential that left many thinking he could be the main threat to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez in previous years.
Vinales is still yet to win with Aprilia, and although the final few races of 2022 proved to be tough for both he and team-mate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro, the🔯 former Moto3 world champion is expected to be a contender for ꦯwins this season.
Should Vinale💧s rediscover his winning touch in 2023 then challenging for the title could become a realistic possibility, which he claims is the ‘clear’ goal set out by Aprilia.
"The most important thing is that we are both fighting to make Aprilia world champion, we are very clear ab🔯out this," said Vinales when speaking to Corsedimoto. "We must continue like this, because I think the team has great harmony."
Harmony was the complete opposite of his relationship with Yamaha and 2021 world champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo during his final season at Yamaha.
Once Vinales left and was replaced by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Franco Morbidelli, Quartararo lacked any type ꦓof🐟 support when it came to fighting the likes of Ducati for victories.
However, Vinales, who is well aware of the struggle꧑s Yamaha have endured in ♐recent seasons when it comes to top speed, was quick to dismiss returning to Yamaha at any stage.
"I don't know what Quartararo said, because I haven't tried the bike for years," added Vಞinales. "Regarding returning to Yamaha, I would not go back.
"I'm not saying this for them, w♔ith whom I had an excellent relationship. But I decided to change the music."
