Spin fluctuations are reported near the magnetic field driven quantum critical point in YbRh2Si2 [1]. On cooling, ferromagnetic fluctuations evolve into incommensurate correlations with a characteristic in-plane wave vector of $q_m = (\delta,\delta)$ with $\delta=0.14 \pm 0.04$ r.l.u. At low temperatures, an in plane magnetic field induces a sharp intra doublet resonant excitation at an energy $g\mu_B\mu_0H$ with $g=3.8\pm 0.2$. The intensity is localized at the zone center and has a width in momentum space indicating precession of spin density extending $\xi = 6 \pm 2$ \AA\ beyond the 4f site.\\[4pt] [1] C. Stock, C.
