Default No Ducati in BSB?

Well, MCN have just reported that the NW200 team will not be getting the Ducatis next year,.....which means that there will be no front teams on the Italian Machinery.

Shame.

I'm in total agreement here. It does level the playing field a bit.

Just recieved this thru Facebook from Rutter. Makes good reading.

"The International North West 200 has announced that it will take its support to Rob Mac Racing for the 2009 Bennetts British Superbike Championship, with Michael Rutter joining forces with Chris Walker for the new season.

The decision to take its support to the Yamaha team means there will be no major Ducati team in the series for the 2009 season, with Rutter having elected to remain with the North West outfit despite considering setting up his own team.

"I am delighted to be able to continue my association with the North West 200 and I am confident that we will be able to work very well with Rob Mac Racing," Rutter said. "So far the news on the R1 coming out of World Superbike testing is very positive, and I am looking forward to throwing my leg over the bike in February."
