Paolo Pavesio set to take over as managing director in 2025

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

Starting on January 1, 2025, Pavesio will assume the role of managing director at Yamaha Motor Racing.

He formerly served as Yamaha Motor Europe's Director of Marketing and Motorsport, where he reorganized the motorsport division, leading to world championship victories in World Superbikes, EWC, and MXGP.

Pavesio will succeed Jarvis, who is stepping down after 26 years as the head of Yamaha.

Under Jarvis's leadership, Yamaha secured eight rider championships, six constructor championships, and seven team championships. He guided the Japanese company through its most successful periods with Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo, and also managed their latest triumph with Fabio Quartararo.

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

Takahiro Sumi, who serves as the General Manager for the Motor Sports Development Division, expressed gratitude to Lin for his 26 years of commitment and accomplishments, both personally and on behalf of Yamaha.

"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 insights in the future."

Paolo Pavesio is set to take over from Lin as Managing Director. Pavesio comes with extensive experience from his previous position 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 this January. With him at the helm, I am certain that Yamaha can achieve the future triumphs in MotoGP that we are all working towards."
