Yamaha Motor Europe has just announced a one-year contract extension with Pata Snack. They will be making their return to the FIM Superbike World Championship with the Yamaha WorldSBK Official Team for their sixth season.
To mark this renewal, riders Toprak Razgatlıoğlu and 2021-newcomer Andrea Locatelli, alongside Yamaha Motor Europe Road Racing Manager Andrea Dosoli visited the Pata factory in Castiglione delle Stiviere, Lombardy. They had lunch with Pata owner Remo Gobbi, as well as a tour of their brand-new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility.
Founded in 1981, the Italian artisan brand Pata Snack is one of the biggest snack and crisp companies nationally. With Gobbi, Pata Snack has been an important supporter in WorldSBK for several seasons. They will continue that in 2021 as the title sponsor of the Yamaha WorldSBK Official Team.
Pata’s involvement in motorcycle racing has also extended to supporting young rider talent in the world championships. They have worked with over 20 riders over the last decade, including the likes of Noriyuki Haga and Valentino Rossi.

“We’re all thrilled to continue this highly successful and long partnership with Pata Snack. After six years in WorldSBK, Pata is now synonymous with both Yamaha and the championship. It was a pleasure to meet up with Remo at their fantastic new facility in Lombardy. I’m delighted that he is just as excited as we are about Yamaha and Pata’s future. In 2021, we both have high aspirations in WorldSBK and their passion for working with young riders is perfectly in-line with Yamaha’s philosophy.”
