ooooooo, should be interesting.......
Let's see.... should be interesting if true, but I've lost a great deal of interest in GP this season, not just because Rossi is out, it's just getting a tad dull now; reminds me of why I stopped watching F1 all those years back (when they first put a cut/groove in the tyre).
For me, WSBK has been the one to watch in 2010

Ducati want Rossi so they can have his input to make a winning bike again, Stoners let them down
I think there may also be a large sum of money involved . . .
great news everyone new he would end his carear there and I couldnt see him stick on 2 wheels for more then another 2 years.
Im sure hes copying me though. I buy a R1 6 months later he signs for for Yamaha, I buy a duc 4 months ago....

I hope Spies gets a Factory Place!

spies alerady has a works yam really, its just its not in the main yamaha team
so wont make any difference to how he`s going
just look how much better he got once rossi was out, you can bet yamaha gave him lots of rossi`s parts.

even the commentators on the motoGP races have been saying its on from there paddock contactsdon't they abbounce this every year? but then it all falls apart and is untrue?
One rumour i saw was Spies to partner Jorge at FIAT Yamaha and Cal Crutchlow to Tech 3
, that would work for me...he's got the arrogance/confidence to be in the MotoGP paddock i think.

guess you dont know much about motoGP from that comment
Bit of a coincidence ducati are now moaning about the price of competing in WSB's and talking of pulling out just after they sign Rossi on a huge megabucks deal.
Looks like they are banking on him and his team so much they are prepared to sacrifice the entire WSB squad to do it.

WSB ? Whats that? Just kidding.
I have to say I am sorry to see Rossi go, having a heart felt passion for Yammy. His business is done. He's made the M1 the best bike on the grid. Lorenzo will fly the flag now.. I think Spies will be another best of the rest..
Not sure Rossi be able to win in 2011. Doubt Yamaha will allow Rossi to test/develop the Ducati before his official Yamaha contract expires.. Which is a shame cos Lorenzo will probably run away with the title next yr and we won't see any real competitve action until 2012.
Already got my deposit lined up for my Rossi race rep
The only thing not mentioned is if Jerry Burgess will go with Rossi ? They are far and above the best 'team' in MotoGP and have developed the M1 into what it is.
The burning question is will Rossi's Ducati be red or yellow ?
