Yamaha ParkinGO team to pick up Yamaha WSBK effort?

Since Yamaha’s announcement on Monday that they would be withdrawing their World Superbike factory effort, there’s been talk that Yamaha could do a Ducati, that is give their bikes to a private team to run (privateer Carlos Checa isn’t a faring so bad with 10 wins) and that team could be World Supersport team ParkinGO.

The Yamaha ParkinGO team is currently dominating in World Supersports with Chaz Davies (4 wins) and Luca Scassa (2 wins), taking home six out of the eight races so far this season and Giuliano Rovelli who runs the team was already thinking of making the switch to Superbikes as he revealed to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“We are working on it from April,” said the Italian manager.
Yamaha Europe did not seem convinced, but that scenario has changed.
” Rovelli is also in talks with Ducati and Aprilia, if Yamaha should decide not to give him the R1’s at a decent price, but according to the British press it seems that Shaun Muir could represent Yamaha if he should decide to take his Swan Yamaha BSB team into the international scene, now that the World Superbikes are going for the one bike rule and limited testing time.
