REALLY? Spoilers on the side fairing?

they were run/tested by stoner and hayden earlier in the season.

i'm kinda surprised that they're giving them another run with rossi, though.

Press 'successivo' to scroll through.

Fairing is different for sure, 'gills' on radiator air exit, pretty sure the swoop in the bottom of the fairing is new.

Perhaps a derby....

plucked from another place "....Ducati have prepped three bikes for Rossi tomorrow. One Big Bang GP10, one
Screamer GP11 and one Big Bang GP11..."

Any hard info or WAG based on the exhaust note in the video on which one he picked?

Exactly. And no wonder they listed him as an HRC rider and not Repsol...considering the livery.

The wings on Rossi's bike are interesting...like Stoner used this season, but they also have downward pointing winglets...weird.

I've got to think those will go away when JB and Rossi start developing the bike and get the traction improved. Wings on a moto seem odd.

All of the pics of the '10 wings, that I can recall, have the winglets.
Winglets might be a hair bigger.

Speculation was that the wings improved the outflow of air from the radiator.
