Lorenzo has most to gain from Rossi's penalty and submitted a written statement to the Court of Arbitration for Sport that ruled on Thursday against the Italian's appeal for a stay of execution.
The controversy has caused huge ructions in Spain and Italy, where Rossi is one of the most popular and high profile sportsmen.
Watch company Sector No Limits said in a statement that its brand values had always been "sportsmanship, challenge, healthy competition and integrity".
The firm added that it had decided to leave MotoGP at the end of the season because it "could not identify with the events of recent weeks in the world championship".
