Ducati factory team out of WSBK in 2011. Now that is quite silly, but in a way smart. The new bike better be crazy fast or they will be huge backlash.

You know, I read that article and I can just hear Nicky's trembly Kentucky drawl behind those words.  I think he and Rossi will make a good pairing.

Are the rumors that Suzuki will drop out of MotoGP in 2011 or 2012?

2012.  I *think* they're under contract with Dorna through 2011.  But as you can tell from the dogshit condition of their bikes, they're only half-heartedly living up to their contractual obligations. 

At least by giving them 9 engines rather than the 6 that everyone else is using, the Suzukis weren't dead last this part weekend.  And both of them didn't crash this time either.

Good for Melandri. He's a good rider that has been stuck on bad bikes.

No way.  Even with the up-n-down of the last three years, he's still way too good.  

Neukirchner is gonna be gone from Ten Kate, and it makes sense that JT would land there.
