Pedrosa to Ducati

Hey guys.

Was just thinking back to the discussion about Lorenzo possibly joining Ducati, and then I read that Pedrosa has been approached by them. Do you think he will go?
Stoner is definately staying with them in 2010 which is good to hear, but imagine what Pedrosa would be like off the line on a Ducati haha!
I remember hearing at Brno that Ped and Dovi have basic contracts set out for them for two year deals, but they have not actually put pen to paper yet, and now Pedrosa has came out and said that Ducati have approached him. Do you think he will stall to see what negotiations each team will take, as Ducati is clearly setting their sights on getting two top riders in their team, not just Stoner and someone else to fill the other spot!!

Also Capirossi has came out and said that Ducati also approached him, but now he has confirmed he will be with Suzuki in 2010, but in my opinion Capirex is the best person to shift to Ducati, because he was with them from 2003-2007 and was moderately successful on the bike.

And I was also glad to hear that Lorenzo has confirmed he will stay with the Fiat Yamaha team for next year, definately the right decision, and apparently at the moment he has a bike that is "similar to Rossi's" but for the rest of this season and all of next season he has been guaranteed a bike "the same as Rossi's"

A lot to take in hear, but any thoughts?

I think it's a gimme that Stoner is off to HRC to rejoin his pal Livio. Interesting that the big talk this weekend was that "half" of the Ducati mechanics are seeking new teams for next season? Does that mean they have signed a rider who will be bringing his own entourage? Must be a real name for Ducati to allow him to bring his own team which is not at all how the Italian outfit normally like to work.

Lorenzo to be N01 Yamaha rider with team mate Spies next year? And just where will the diminutive Spaniard be going to as he really has had enough of life with "Big Red"

3 riders for repsol/red bull honda, dani, dovi and casey

spies to fiat yamaha

Think this will be a good move for stoner, quite like the idea of a 3 rider team hopefully other teams may follow suit, the more bikes on the track the better
