Lorenzo has the pace over Rossi, so Yamaha will not be letting Lorenzo go in a hurry. Team mates don't have to get along in racing.
Rossi will ride with Yamaha for another year, well becuase he is Rossi and as long as he can hang in there at the front, well you know it's good for publicity, the legend and all that - it sells bikes. But at some time they need to look forwards and start looking for a new team mate for Lorenzo and somebody who can potentially win world champions ships now and in the future.
Bottom line, Rossi is still performing but for how long, he's not a young man any more.
Question for me is who's quick enough to fill Rossi's boots when he retires.
Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
