I think because they don't run any satellite teams
Suzuki is exempt from the rookie rule due to exactly that fact. If they can get their development ramped up a bit more, that could be a strong suit for Suzuki, since they'd have the pick of the crop each year to head straight to a factory team.

in at least 4 years they haven't been able to do that. i wouldn't hold my breath..
-- but i would bet there'll be at least one empty seat at that team next year.

Spies will follow the money. Count on it. With the rule clarification I can understand why FIAT/Yamaha is out
granted he's only going to become moreso, but the guy is already a multi-millionaire. money is great 'n all, but he wants to
win
.
and while factory yamaha may be out (for a year), all yamaha has to do is agree to give him factory support at Tech 3. no reason they can't do that.

Am I the only one who thinks that Lorenzo staying with Fiat affects Spies' chance of getting a factory supported Tech 3 ride?

Suppo recently confirmed that Pramac Ducati rider Mika Kallio will definitely be staying to ride a GP10 next season. Ducati is poised to exercise an option to keep the Finn.
and you can be sure the same is
not
true for Canepa.

I don't like saying it, but I hope Ben stays away from the Duc.
It'd be great to see him on a Duc if it were a competitive mount for anyone besides Stoner.

personally...looking at the track record for the Duc GP bikes...I think that would be a mistake for Ben...now, if he ended up on an 1198R in WSBK...that is a whole horce of a different color and I think I;d like to see that!!!

Am I the only one who thinks that whether or not Lorenzo stays at Fiat, Ben would be an idiot to get on a GP10?

The GP* is a career killer, but if Ben could manage to ride it like Stoner, then that would be sick. He would be an idiot if he decided not to ride for Yamaha.
