Rossi going to Ducati is big news because its been something the Italians and team yellow have wanted since the beginning of his career. I have to admit I’m looking forward to it as its a real challenge for them both. Not a gamble like a lot of peole ar saying. Not a gamble at all. None. In fact I can say with confidence that with the addition of Burgess, crew and Rossi fully fit they will have the most technically knowledgable and educated team in the paddock. Its a no brainer. The bike is as good as the Yamaha and Honda now without the additional efforts. The overtime bill for Ducati will be immense come March next year because they will see this as the biggest chance to win another Title before the 1000cc’s come home.
