    I hope Ducati takes this personally and builds a kick-ass bike for Hayden.

    As much as I wished he could have stuck it out and finished what he started with Ducati, I am excited to see Vale back with Yamaha.

    Its the right move for him...although it would have been cool for him to do well and retire with Ducati.

    Meh, good riddance. I'm happy to see an American as the #1 rider for Ducati.

    Bout time. The matter of fact is that Rossi did not want to be beat by his own teammate and moved to Duc. Unfortunatelly for him things did not turn out that well with the Desmo so he kinda had to go back to yami with his tail in between his legs.

    Props to Stoner for being the only rider who consistently put Ducati on the podium. Boo to Ducati for snobbing Casey a couple of years ago.

    Jorge vs. Rossi !!! I can't wait. If Rossi is not on top next year, we know he lost his touch. Would have been nice to see rossi leave with ducati but going to Yamaha is a better choice as far as his career. Just think if Hayden didn't go to Ducati and went to Yamaha. Would be nice to see Suzuki and Kawi come back.

    rossi has personal sponsors like Monster (hi alex). factory yamaha probably has the Fiat sponsor so thats what his bike will look like i assume.

    Hahahaha...I was just reading that article prior to seeing your post. Here is the quote from MotoGp.com:

    "The Repsol Honda rider was referring to Rossi’s and Burgess’ words, that they could create a bike any rider could win on. The Italian and his team have only managed two podiums in the last one and half seasons, with the seven-time premier-class champion having recently announced he will be switching back to Yamaha for 2013 on a two-year deal.

    Stoner, who won the world championship with Ducati in 2007 and stayed with the team until 2010 had strong words about the recent turn of events: "They ate their words from day one. Jerry saying that it would take him 80 seconds to fix that bike and that it was a simple issue and now they have had almost two years and have not made any inroads. Valentino obviously doesn't want to push limits and ride a bike that is not perfect; he has admitted that.

    "Obviously he doesn't want to put the effort in with Ducati. I just feel completely sorry for Ducati that Valentino has gone there and done nothing but complain about the bike for almost two years. The amount of times that guy has had to eat his words is not funny, but people still forgive him for it.""

    Read the full article and interview at MCN.
