    I read michelin provided dual compound to counter some of these issues (Not sure if it is Sachsenring), Bridgestone should too look into these factors..

    Just my point....

                quite surprisingly, it seems Ducati still believes that some minor tweaking here and there or swapping some parts coupled with hiring lot of young riders can solve their problems.

                really sad state of affairs in motogp with only three factory teams.

                i wish hayden gets a nice ride in world superbikes except ducati.

                    According to Lorenzo's twitter, he is "Almost ready for Lagunca Seca".

                        Cal, LCR, HRC, 2014.... It's up to you to make a story out of them.

                        Now, it 'd be a pity if, Bautista rides a Honda in 2014 and Bradl moves out.

                          I think Cal will sign with Ducati for 2014, a 1 year deal to "evaluate" if it works out for him, while keeping an eye on a Honda/Yamaha factory ride in 2015. I don't see the merits of him going to a satellite Honda team. Honda can't offer him a factory ride for 2015 either because most probably they will stick will Marquez and Pedrosa. It makes no sense to jump from 1 satellite team (tech3) which is working fantastically for him, to another satellite team(LCR), which might or might not suit him (and is getting worse results with its current riders).

                            Cal wants a factory support/contract for 2014. He isn't bothered to be in a satellite team for the next season. LCR has a HRC contract for Stefan. So, if they can renew it for Cal, it makes sense. Well, Cal made it clear that he 'll stay with Tech3 for 2014 even though it's a satellite, making it easier for him to take Rossi's bike in 2015. Well, Ducati is a *****, plain and clear unless your name's Stoner. Dovi is a brilliant rider. Look at 2012's points table. But, he is struggling quite badly.

                            Cal has denied the discussion so far but, he is a willy fox. He can switch sides easily.

                            PS: I didn't give Ducati a 5-star!

                            EDIT - Many riders have ridden both Honda and Yamaha in the MotoGP. I don't think it 'll be tough for anyone who's good to understand the steed and give it a stick.

                              Update: Lorenzo will be flying to leguna. Says I feel better already. No definite decision to race yet.

                              Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                                Jorge Lorenzo is taking too much risks. Hope all goes well with him in Leguna Seca.
