P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Pata Yamaha boss Paul Denning has teased that Andrea Locatelli’s new crew chief will come from MotoGP.
Denning, the team manager, announced that Locatelli’s current crew chief, Andrew Pitt, will be moved to work with Jonathan Rea in the WorldSBK 2024 season, as they have a long-standing relationship from their time as teammates in 2008. Instead of considering other options such as keeping Razgatlıoglu’s crew chief or bringing in Rea’s current crew chief from Kawasaki, a decision was made to pair Pitt with Rea due to their personal and professional connection, as well as Pitt’s extensive experience with the team. The team initially tried to retain Phil Marron as Locatelli’s crew chief, but he decided to join Razgatlıoglu at BMW. The team is planning to announce Locatelli’s new crew chief, who may come from the MotoGP paddock, by the end of November.
