Today the Petronas SRT team was officially introduced to the press. Nine-time world champion Valentino Rossi shares the garage with his friend and MotoGP runner-up Franco Morbidelli. Together they unveiled the Yamaha YZR-M1 livery. On this occasion and throughout the MotoGP season, Belotti will be next to, or rather on top of Franco Morbidelli’s helmet.
A driver with crystal clear talent and determination that makes him always do his best and improve from race to race. Franco Morbidelli is a pro who is driven by a strong passion, but also a helpful and friendly guy off the track. His personality and the results achieved therefore honor a young champion who is very close to our hearts. In fact, you can recognize Belotti by these essential characteristics, which are very similar to the values and daily challenges in the company: Determination in the constant development of ever more powerful and modern technologies; Humanity in dealing with customers and all employees; Passion for their work with commitment, every day.
“Belotti SpA has been developing and manufacturing 3 and 5-axis machining centers for milling and trimming composite materials, light metals and plastics for over 40 years – mentioned CEO Umberto Belotti – The automotive industry is one of the main sectors in which Belotti’s solutions are used and have always been valued, especially in the racing and top-end segments (super and hypercars). It is therefore “natural” to support a great man and champion like Franco Morbidelli in this new 2021 MotoGP season. Seeing Belotti as the official sponsor of the driver is a source of excitement and great honor. We wish him all the best for the new 2021 season and look forward to both team riders writing another chapter in the history of MotoGP. “
