Good stuff, the package is working well, glad he's going to continue with the team!

Due to Spies likely to resign,Crutchlow probaly will sign by the now AUDI funded and technologically backed Ducati,thus meaning the end of Hayden as a rider for the team or will they run 3 bikes?

Ginger Smith has signed to step up to Moto GP with Tech 3 and Scott Reddings team are negotiating for a lease bike for him to compete in the blue riband class also.Superb to see talented British riders getting a chance.

Dovi deserves the factory ride over Crutchlow or Spies.

Not sure what happened to Spies as I saw him as a class act. I doubt Spies will be dropped soon as a few Yankee rounds are coming up and best not to upset the natives.

Crutchlow moving to Ducati is no bad deal as it's a factory ride with a factory pay cheque. If it goes wrong it's no big deal as he was not fighting for wins.

Rossi is the mystery to me. Stay with Ducati or go....but go where

I thought so too, but the fact of the matter is that he's really not achieved what we hoped he would. This season's been a mess, and in one of the top 4 seats in the class (HRC or Factory Yamaha ride) you really need to be challenging for the podium. He's not, Dovi is.

Sounds a bit daft but I can see him getting a Japanese factory bike in his own team more likely Honda than Yamaha. He's a big enough draw to have the best funding out there to get things going...

I could also see him on Bautistas bike.

RossI pretty much dumped on the bosses desk at Honda when he left.

No Honda....I can almost guarantee that.

He comes nowhere and he still the man....a Yamaha it is.
