Fack.  Just keep him away from Stoner and Hayden and all the other Ducs.  He can crash into Pedrobot as much as he wants.

I hope they figured their additional parts costs into the equation when negotiating his salary.

You didn't read the article closely enough.  They already took that into account.  He'll be riding both the 5th and 6th bikes.     cheeky

everybody likes to bring that up, but they all forget how capi won his 250 championship against harada.

some background, it was a title fight between capi and harada (teamates on the aprilia factory team) with winner takes all at the final round in argentina. this was the final turn of the final lap:

<hypocrisy>  Yeah, but I like Capi.  So it's ok.   cheeky 

Truth be told, my digust with Sete has waned somewhat.  I'd love to see him break the curse.  Couse, I'm only gonna feel that way until he starts taking out some Ducs or otherwise shows himself to be Rossi's pregnant dog.  Again.

I thought you meant ourei harada  cheeky

I think it will be interesting to see Gibernau in the line up again.  He was a good racer but he had some nasty spills, especially that one in was it Catalunya where he took out something like 4 people.

Ducati's trying to turn the factory team into a Rossi-Mindmake the beast with two backs Anonymous (RMA) chapter.  They figure they can save money by having group therapy sessions as opposed to the more costly one-on-one alternatives. 

They're also trying to sign Max to the Xerox WSBK team so they can really get their money's worth.

It's just a contest to see whether Sete's latest GF is hotter than Casey's (very young) wife....as neither one ever again expects to beat Rossi...

no matter how many times i watch that video, i still think gibberish could've just leaned on rossi all the way through that turn.
 
capirossi did that to his teammate. sete taking him out a few seasons ago was just karmic payback.   Grin

I guess with Sete (possibly) back at Ducati, they'll have a chance to get revenge on him. Wink

n.b. I'm not a Gibernau fan!
