As this weekend has proved, ducati will be much better off with Iannone (which I did predict would happen in a post few months ago that many disagreed with) replacing the failure that has been the Crutchlow. I wish him well as a fellow Brit but come on cal it was never going to work and he knew it, not bad earnings for a years work, good on him for that, but, let's see if the two italian stallions with the new chassis/engine can do us ducati lovers proud. Early signs are promising...........
That's very true - rumour mill is redding may be out a ride for next year due to budget - pramac are speaking to his management as Ducati are interested in him we could see another brit on the Ducati. Not much options left open for the young brit - we should know this weekend
Gresini have until this weekend to confirm their option with Honda for the Redding/Factory bike, as they don't have the budget (Go&Fun are not able to meet their commitment for next year) this is unlikely to happen - Gresini will probably run a semi works team for Aprilia. Marc VDS are likely to be offered the Factory Honda and Redding should get the ride.
I agree but will Marc vds get it all ready in time for next season - new equipment - staff - licence etc etc - I hope so
I think so, he's already announced withdrawal from Moto3 next year, so he has a team ......and he's definitely got the money
