Yamaha announces successor to Lin Jarvis

Paolo Pavesio set to take over as managing director in 2025

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

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

He had earlier worked as the Marketing and Motorsport Director at Yamaha Motor Europe, where he reorganized the motorsport division, leading to world championship victories in World Superbikes, EWC, and MXGP.

Pavesio is taking over from Jarvis, who will conclude his 26-year leadership at Yamaha.

Under Jarvis's leadership, Yamaha secured eight championships for riders, six for constructors, and seven for teams. He guided the company through its peak years with Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo, and also managed their latest championship win with Fabio Quartararo.

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

"On a personal level and representing Yamaha, I want to express my gratitude to Lin for his commitment and accomplishments throughout these 26 years," stated Takahiro Sumi, General Manager of the Motor Sports Development Division.

His dedication, hard work, and leadership have played a crucial role in Yamaha's achievements in MotoGP, and I am 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 brings extensive experience from his time at YME, where he led Yamaha teams to World Championship victories in WorldSBK, EWC, and MXGP as the Marketing and Motorsport Director.

"I am eager to have Paolo join YMR in January, and I believe that with his guidance, Yamaha will achieve the future successes in MotoGP that we are all working towards."
