    Yamaha Factory Racing can confirm that Silvano Galbusera will join the

Team from today in the position of Crew Chief for rider Valentino Rossi

for the 2014 MotoGP season.




The appointment follows the announcement that Jeremy Burgess would no

longer continue with Team following the Valencia Grand Prix weekend.


Silvano began his career in motorcycle racing in 1979 with Gilera,

spending 14 years working on both road racing in the 250cc world

championship with riders such as Alessandro Gramigni and Paolo Casoli

and also worked off road on African Rallies such as the Paris-Dakar with

Michele Rinaldi. He then moved to Cagiva in 1994 and worked in the

500cc world championship with John Kocinski.


The following year saw Silvano arrive in the Yamaha family where he

remained until 2011. During his time there he worked as both a Crew

Chief and Technical Director in World Superbike and World Supersport,

guiding riders including Troy Corser, Noriyuki Haga, Cal Crutchlow and

Ben Spies to multiple race wins and of course the 2009 World Superbike

Championship title. For 2012 and 2013 Silvano worked with Italian Marco

Melandri in BMW’s World Superbike team.

He once worked with 'Lil John then. That background in mental health nursing has to come in handy given the prospect of working alongside an ailing prima donna with an ego the size of the solar system.
