VR: Is good. Is a good feeling, and especially because I avoid all the people in Italy from the man who sells the newspaper to the people who make the coffee who say "Why you not go to Ducati? When you go to Ducati?" So this is more easy [laughs].

"I can feel we will have a good relationship with Ben," he said. "Perhaps we won't be best friends, but there won't be a wall in the garage and we won't keep our telemetries secret."



guess we'll see how long that kind of relationship lasts....once Ben starts regularly pipping into the front row regularly.

"You must be subscribed...."

Please stop teasing those of us w/o MotoGp subs  bang head

Based on the text (and Rossi's history), it's probably not wise for Yamaha to piss him off by denying him the desmo ride at Valencia...what do you think?

Jarvis was speaking at the official MotoGP test at Brno on Monday where Rossi tested a new Yamaha engine upgrade, and in a separate interview the Italian rider said he hoped to be able to ride the Ducati for the first time at the end-of-season Valencia test. Masao Furusawa, Executive Officer of Engineering Operations at Yamaha, indicated however that this was unlikely due to contractual agreements.[/i]

I understand its a contract, but for everything Yamaha gained from Rossi, that's pretty weak.

and they know that any further contractual obligations Rossi is required to fulfill, he will without a problem...and Rossi could stir a virtual shitstorm in the media if he chose...he was rather quiet when Honda said no to him about testing the M1 at the end of 2003 and so he made it a mission to make a point of blacking Honda in the eye at every turn that year.
