“Of course, he wants to take his people with him. We told him that in the end we have the ultimate responsibility to Petronas, regardless of his contract with Yamaha,” he continued.

“We also told him that he will replace Fabio, so he will also take his place in the pits,” added Wilco Zeelenberg.

“He will be on the left side of the paddock. So it’s not the right side that he usually occupies in the factory team, “he said.

“It may seem like a detail, but it is important that he does not replace Franco. We want them to motivate each other,” explained Wilco Zeelenberg.
