PHOTO: The 2010 look of Philippaerts and Paulin
The 2010 Yamaha Monster Energy MX Teams were shown in public for the first time today. To emphasize the rebellious character of main sponsor Monster Energy, the factory YZ450 and YZ250 were given a playful new look.
In the MX1, Yamaha is counting on the revolutionary YZ450FM and ex-world champion David Philippaerts. For the first time since 2005, the Yamaha-Rinaldi team will also compete in MX2. Gautier Paulin, who finished third in the MX2 World Championship last year, is Yamaha's best hope to take the title in the quarter-litre class. As usual, the factory Yamahas are real gems. Watch and enjoy!
