MotoGP: Monster sponsorship gives new look to Yamahas

1 of 12

The addition of Monster Energy as title sponsor to the 2019 Yamaha M1 has given the bike a radical new look for the season ahead, with black joining the blue as the Monster claw takes over from the old Movistar logo. The bikes were unveiled today by Valentino Rossi and Maverick Viñales in a ceremony in Indonesian capital Jakarta, just days before they’re set to take to track for the first time at Malaysia’s Sepang circuit for the first pre-season test of the year.
