Ben can always take Josh Hayes's ride after he retires and work his way back up the ladder - but leave mom home this time, please

'Stoner's crew heading back to Italy?

http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2012/Aug/120831f.htm

Honda wants to keep them to make the transition easier for Marquez?
I thought Marquez was married to his Monlau team, that's why it would have been troublesome for him to go to a Satellite Team.

WTF?

Knowledge transfer to Marquez' crew and you still want to keep some continuity. Also, some of those guys going back to the competition might be an issue.

Except I would hate to see Ben on the career killer for too long if they don't solve all the issues.

I like it...

It's well known that the Duc is a dog, so I doubt it will kill any more careers, if it has at all.

Iannone is a great rider and a real personality...kind of like Simoncelli. He deserves a ride, and will be good for the show.

I hope Ben got a two year deal so he can stay in the gp paddock, if he wants to. If the Duc doesn't pan out he would still have a chance at Suzuki if they re-enter in 2015.

It would be nice to know who'll be running this 'jv' squad.

been there, done that.  how many other rookies won?

no doubt the duc has been/is currently a mess.  but there's nowhere to go but up.  and Ducaudi have a white hot burning need to fix shit.  they just lost valentino fer chrissake!

we already know ben can be fast on just about anything.  they had to have double-dog sworn that the jv team gets factory machinery AND someone is going to listen to them.

so.. why the hell not.

Guessing once you leave Motogp, there is no coming back. Sounds like he wants to hang around for another few years and can always go back to WSBK.

I am more stoked about Crazy Joe on the Duc than I am Ben. I wish Ben had gone to a satellite Honda team instead. But oh well...
