I think it would cool if the Brits manage to sort the duke out.

Bologna factory sources have confirmed to MCN in Misano last weekend that FTR had been collaborating with Ducati for several weeks on the new projects, with Rossi and teammate Nicky Hayden urging engineers to undergo a radical re-design of its Desmosedici project.

You're a bit behind the curve on that one. FTR have already built it, Ducati and Rossi have already tested it. However it's unlikely to make an appearance this year as Ducati are low on remaining test days. Ducati are also very low on engines as they had to modify their new ones to fit in the GP11.1 frame.
