Yamaha to vary livery during year

[leopard]

Having said before about rumor that Yamaha Fiat had plan to running more than a color scheme this season, not sure changes like what the vary livery they are talking about. This is now the talk re-surfaces.

If that is only like years before to use two traditional colors of Yamaha, i.e yellow and white, i don't think it can be concerned as vary livery, but rather to follow the old tradition to appear different on some circumstances.

Actually, now I believe that the blue-white Yamaha Fiat looks gorgeous amongst of theirs, although I have to say that color scheme being used by them on the paddock looks better than what's painted on bike.

I wouldn't mind if the new color is only playing about combination of the two blue and white, but if it appears in the middle of season totally different with it like red, black etc, it would be more seen as inconsistency.

I think Yamaha will use their traditional colours at Laguna, as they have done before, as for other rounds ?

Part of the reason Yamaha ran Kenny Roberts yellow bikes in Laguna in 05 and Colin had stars and stripes in 06 was because they werent allowed to ran Gauloises and Camel because of US tobacco advertising laws

BTW I find it funny how the article talks about Yamaha's tradition of running one-off liveries and then offers as examples Rossi's Aprilia and Honda Liveries

Besides tobacco bans, they were celebrating their golden anniversary.

That's what I wonder, running one-off yellow or white liveries isn't something new and the talks needn't come up to surface.

This is because i begin to fall in love with the ancient letter of FIAT
