Seen a few reports that Dovi has signed for Ducati, if this is true no factory ride for cal, so where to for him now?? Surely best bet to stay at tech 3 ??
i kinda hoped Cal was going to get the Ducati ride as i really wanted to see what he could do on it. However him staying at Tech 3 isnt a bad thing and its only a matter of time before he is on the podium
True. He and Dovi were making something of those bikes that Hayden and Rossi between them couldn't match on the factory Ducati. You accept a 7th place works ride with your heart not your head. If he comes out of it as clear number one for Tec 3, it might not be a bad thing.
I'd be surprised if that deal hadn't already been done. Not that the satellite bike isn't that far off the factory anyway. If he is sensible, stay at tech three, become a regular podium placer and take the factory ride in two years when Rossi retires / goes to wsb...
i think Cal would do a lot better on the Ducati than Dovi but i guess Cal is not italian so Dovi may suit them better , be good to see the satellite team as they are a junior factory team , Ducati will be picking the 2 riders to ride the bikes and they will be the same spec as factory to help development , i really think this might be a great chance for Redding to make a name for himself , also IANNONE should do well with his ride it past the limit style . any one have news on where Hector will go or what bike he will ride he has done very well this year on the lowest spec Ducati out there
