Finally waded through all the email updates from my motogp.com subscription and saw this.    
Hopefully he gets a decent ride for 2014. He deserves it after getting such sub-par bikes from Ducati.

Eh, done the sme thing a hundred times. Roll Eyes My middle name is "derby".

I like "The Kid" and I hope he lands something decent. Don't see that happening in GP though.

The line from Ducati:

http://www.cycleworld.com/2013/07/29/ducati-boss-paolo-ciabatti-explains-decision-to-release-nicky-hayden/

Sounds like there's a Ducati Superbike offer (though maybe an informal one, without all the zeroes filled out, much less the rest of the contrace) on the table.

the way I read that was as a potential replacement for Pirro possibly....from this bit alone...

"....“In the past, Ducati had some good results with Nicky, but we were never able to achieve any race wins. There is a cycle in the sporting life of athletes, and I think we all, including him, need to look at a different opportunity.”....Will Hayden continue to be involved in development of the current machine? “Yes,” said Ciabatti. “We really value his input and effort. This bike can be improved....."
