    it's quite ironic all satellite champions used the latest factory spec bike

      Not to mention that the Nastro Azzuro Honda team isn't really satelite, as the team were run and funded by Honda Europe

      Rossi 100% raced latest spec, Jorge raced latest model but not necessarily the latest spec, that's 2 different technicalities.
      And Jorge was a true satellite rider while Rossi was a proper factory rider, I fact Honda's priority.

      ​@@ducedevlstear2471No, both raced latest spec guaranteed by Ducati and Martin was a factory rider directly employed by Ducati and sort of lend to Pramac

      He had the latest bike and Mick Doohan’s pit crew. It was a factory team just not in Repsol colours.

    Rossi's 2000-2001 Honda was a 100% Factory spec bike. The team wasn't a Satellite team even though it looked like it at the time. Mick Doohan was meant to be Rossi's team-mate for the 2000 season but he had a bad crash during the 1999 season that forced him to retire. This is why Rossi was the only rider in that team. All Repsol Honda did was split-up their 4 bike team from 1999 for season 2000-2001.

      This. And the team was funded and ran by Honda Europe
      The reason why Honda didn't put him in the Repsol Honda on that time was actually because the slot at the factory Honda team were full

      ​@@mArvAlcao71 the true reason was Rossi's contract with Nastro Azzuro.

      @ducedevlstear2471 should be no effect. Nasto Azzuro remained as Rossi's personal sponsor until 2004

    Rossi is also the current reigning 500cc Champion and will remain so forever. That's also a fun thing to consider, as in 2002, was the start of the transition to the 800cc MotoGP bikes

    He was on full HRC bike on Honda payroll with the best staff Honda had at that moment.

    yeah no. it was a full factory effort, it was just a title sponsor for some beer not a team owner, 250 he was on an aprillia works team, because it was a title sponsor it mean that it had to be entered with their name
