Italeri 1/9 Yamaha YZR MI Moto GP 2004 (4631)
By signing on racing phenomenon Valentino Rossi, Yamaha had set its sights on winning the
world title, a goal that had remained out of its grasp for far too long, the last victory
being with W. Rainey in 1992. It would be no easy task: owing to contractual problems,
Rossi was unable to test the new motorcycle before January. Nevertheless, at the first
long-awaited race Rossi exceeded even the most optimistic expectations. The race turned out
to be a thrilling contest between arch-rivals Rossi and Biaggi. To the delight and
incredulity of the entire Yamaha team, Rossi took the chequered flag to win the first GP of
the season. The message was clear: the M1 was already competitive and ready to battle it
out for supremacy with Honda. The whole season was characterised by a head-to-head battle
between Rossi and Gibernau and only at the penultimate race was the Yamaha M1 crowned world
champion 2004.
