Paolo Pavesio has been appointed to take over Lin Jarvis' position at Yamaha.

Starting January 1, 2025, Pavesio is set to take on the role of managing director at Yamaha Motor Racing.

Pavesio will take over from Jarvis, who has been the head of Yamaha for 26 years.

Under Jarvis's leadership, Yamaha secured eight rider championships, six manufacturer championships, and seven team championships. He guided the Japanese company through its peak years with Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo, and more recently, helped them achieve a title with Fabio Quartararo.

Even though Jarvis is stepping down from his role as managing director, he will continue to serve as a Senior Advisor for Yamaha.

Takahiro Sumi, the General Manager of Yamaha's Motor Sports Development Division, expressed his gratitude to Lin for his 26 years of dedication and accomplishments, both on a personal level and on behalf of the company.

"His dedication, hard work, and leadership have played a crucial role in Yamaha’s achievements in MotoGP, and I’m pleased that we will continue to benefit from his expertise and experience in the future."

Paolo Pavesio is set to take over the position of Managing Director from Lin. Pavesio has an extensive background, having served as the Marketing and Motorsport Director at YME. During his tenure, he led Yamaha teams to win World Championship titles in WorldSBK, EWC, and MXGP.

"I am eager to have Paolo join YMR in January, and with him at the helm, I am certain that Yamaha can achieve the future success in MotoGP that we are all aiming for."
