Fabio Quartararo was inducted this Monday morning by the official Yamaha team.
After two seasons with Petronas-Yamaha, he becomes the successor to Valentino Rossi
.
"I still find it difficult to realize that I succeed Valentino," said the French in a presentation broadcast on YouTube.
I remember watching his races when I was 6 or 7 years old and there I found myself an official Yamaha rider.
It's really very special to me.
I'm very happy, I can't wait to be in Qatar (next March 28) and to defend my new colors, ”said the 21-year-old French driver.
