There are still some rumors flitting about that Maverick Vinales may be taking Sandro Cortese’s place in Red Bull KTM Ajo team next season, however the situation between the Spanish rider and his manager Ricard Jove - who seemed guilty of not giving his client all the lowdown on other offers before signing him to a new two-year contract with Avintia Blusens - has taken a complete about face as a press release confirmed that Vinales will continue with Jove’s TDS Management company, that has been handling him for the last five years.
Vinale’s, in fit of teenage angst walked out on his Avintia Blusens Moto3 team on the eve of the Sepang GP only to return with his tail between his leathers just a week later at Phillip Island - with his lawyer in tow - and apologize to everyone.
The press release also stated that the ‘future of the rider’ will be confirmed in the following days, which just fuels more speculation if Vinales will be honouring his contract or if he will be getting his wish to ride for a ‘first division’ team.
